This paper presents the first reported use of Doppler radar to remotely sense heart and ventilation rates of fish. The Radar reported 35 to 40 BPM heart rate and 115 to 145 BPM ventilation rates for Siberian Sturgeon, with agreement from a video reference. Conventional fish vital signs measurements require invasive surgery and human handling--these are problematic for large scale monitoring, for measuring deep sea fish, and other situations which preclude human interaction with each individual subject. These results show a useful application of radar to augment existing cardiovascular and ventilatory activity sensing techniques and enable monitoring in a wider range of situations.
本文首次报道了使用多普勒雷达远程感知鱼类的心率和呼吸频率。该雷达测得西伯利亚鲟的心率为每分钟35至40次，呼吸频率为每分钟115至145次，视频参考结果与之相符。传统的鱼类生命体征测量需要进行侵入性手术并人工操作，这对于大规模监测、深海鱼类测量以及其他排除与每个个体进行人工交互的情况来说存在问题。这些结果表明雷达在增强现有心血管和呼吸活动传感技术方面有实用价值，并能够在更广泛的情况下进行监测。
