One way for this to happen, while respecting the social distance, is using contactless technologies, e.g. the bio radar. This way, the HCW will be able to monitor the respiration and heart rates of the patient, without getting close to him. For this to be possible, the best radar configurations were studied, as well as other important aspects that should be taken into consideration while monitoring a patient, for the results obtained to be reliable.engBio radarFMCW radarCOVID-19Vital signs monitoringHeart rateRespiratory rateconference object10.1109/ISC253183.2021.95628982687-8860
