Original Abstract Submitted
An electronic device includes a transceiver configured to transmit and receive ultrawide band (UWB) radar signals. The electronic device also includes a processor operatively coupled to the transceiver. The processor is configured to, based on the received UWB radar signals, detect a human within a detection area of the transceiver. The processor is further configured to perform, based on the detection of the human within the detection area of the transceiver, a motion detection operation, and perform, based on a result of the motion detection operation, a fall detection operation.
