Research interests

Smart radar systems

With the growing overcrowding of the spectrum, new threats (e.g. UAVs near airports), the need for spectrum reuse, and the emergence of 6G of radio and sensing capabilities, there is a need to develop novel radar systems that can evolve in that environment and communicate amongst themselves. This starts with developing the radar spectrum sensing and actively communicating with neighbouring radars or communication nodes to collaborate and fuse information. These functions have to be executed alongside radar functions and switch from one mode to another or combine several modes via resource management. Having a software-defined radar platform to do this would mean that the radar could dynamically change its operating mode to fit the task at hand by acting via software on both hardware and processing configurations.

Radar in Assisted Living

With a growing elderly population worldwide, new paradigms of care are necessary to keep people living at home longer. In assisted living, radar systems are increasingly being employed in healthcare applications for human activity recognition and vital signs due to their advantages in terms of privacy, contactless sensing, and insensitivity to lighting conditions. Proposed classification algorithms are often complex, which necessitates significant computational resources. A multitude of radar data representations, radar systems (geometry, MIMO, …), and machine learning can be used to achieve these tasks. It is important to bring domain knowledge from radar, kinematics, and medical point of view to maximise the performance and the relevance of the system to meet the needs of the end user.

Radar in Animal Welfare

Lameness is among horses and farm animals in the top three welfare issues. Lameness problems are usually located on the animals' hooves, and they cause various issues, from gait change to impaired fertility, sub-optimum carcass, and milk reduction which impact revenue for the farmer and the welfare of the animal. Several methods have been proposed but all present drawbacks regarding accuracy, reliability, equipment cost, and rapidity. Radar systems can be used to detect gait abnormalities in horses and farm animals as well as their vital signs.
