A Review on Radar-Based Human Detection Techniques

Radar systems are diverse and used in industries such as air traffic control, weather monitoring, and military and maritime applications. Within the scope of this study, we focus on using radar for human detection and recognition. This study evaluated the general state of micro-Doppler radar-based human recognition technology, the related literature, and state-of-the-art methods. This study aims to provide guidelines for new research in this area. This comprehensive study provides researchers with a thorough review of the existing literature. It gives a taxonomy of the literature and classifies the existing literature by the radar types used, the focus of the research, targeted use cases, and the security concerns raised by the authors. This paper serves as a repository for numerous studies that have been listed, critically evaluated, and systematically classified.
