Abstract
Monitoring of people by using ultra-wideband (UWB) radars is becoming more and more attractive for many practical applications. This trend follows from the ability of this technology to detect and localize living people even in the case of low or zero-optical visibility. Because of the attractiveness and perspective of this technology, education focused on UWB sensors and their applications has been included also to M.Sc. program in the branch of electronics provided at Technical University of Kosice (TUKE). In order to support this education process, a MATLAB application denoted as UWB-PerLoc-MAT has been designed. UWB-PerLoc-MAT allows UWB radar signal processing for person localization and tracking in 2D space and hence, it can be applied with the advantage during experimental exercises intent on person localization. UWB-PerLoc-MAT has many useful features and useful properties. We believe that it could be interesting for readers working in the field of UWB sensor technologies and related education. Therefore we have decided to bring readers interested in this issue, basic information about UWB-PerLoc-MAT through this paper.
