FMCW Radar Cardiac Timing
Aligns ECG, SCG, and non-contact FMCW radar on a beat-relative axis and analyzes morphology-based AO/AC candidate timing.
Analysis source and real hardware
01
Problem
The project analyzes AO/AC-related candidate timings in non-contact FMCW radar cardiac displacement waveforms aligned with ECG and SCG.
02
Architecture
Concurrent ECG/SCG/BGT60TR13C radar acquisition → ECG R-peak alignment → beat segmentation → phase-displacement and morphology candidate analysis → SQI/CTI export.
03
Hardware and Software
- BGT60TR13C
- STM32F411
- ESP-32S
- MPU6050
- Python
- NumPy
- SciPy
04
Data Flow
Six hundred seconds of concurrent signals are aligned to a common time axis, producing 848 corresponding beats for candidate-timing distribution analysis.
05
Methodology
- Constructed ECG R-peak anchors and SCG reference timings
- Calculated radar phase displacement and beat-relative segments
- Exported detector fusion, signal-quality indices, and candidate timing intervals

Next steps
The current AO/AC values are candidate timings derived from radar morphology. Extending this work to direct valve imaging or clinical performance requires follow-up comparison with independent echo, ICG, or PCG measurements.
Project resources
I aligned SCG and FMCW radar waveforms around ECG R-peaks and compared AO and AC candidate timing. These candidates come from radar-phase morphology; they are not direct images of heart valves.
