| Abstract | This is a continuation of work presented in [1]. It appears possible to measure the Doppler frequency shift caused by radar impinging on blood pumped by the heart to infer the presence of a human in situations where other sensors cannot. This work is applicable to perimeter defense. The relation between the Doppler frequency shift and the pumping action of the heart was modeled mathematically. There is increasing interest in sending electromagnetic signals into the human body, not only for physical security but also for medical reasons [2] To estimate the detection range, propagation of a radar signal through the body is modeled. Input signal is dissipated primarily by scattering at organ interfaces, and attenuation in each organ. Scattering is caused by differences in the index of refraction at each interface. Scattering starts at the air-skin interface. In principal, the approach is valid for many radar frequencies, but high frequencies (GHz) are preferred. However, at these frequencies, significant signal attenuation is expected. Compromise frequencies are therefore being examined. Several hundred MHz might be a good alternative. In addition to examining different frequencies, different signal paths are being examined. Since the radar scans, its signal will enter at different parts of the body and therefore follow different paths, each of which will have a different attenuation. Body parts with expected low and high attenuations have been identified. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
