The monitoring of human activity and vital signs plays a significant role in remote health-care. Radar provides a non-contact monitoring approach without privacy and illumination concerns. However, multiple people in a narrow indoor environment bring dense multipaths for activity monitoring, and the received vital sign signals are heavily distorted with body movements. This paper proposes a framework based on Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) and Impulse Radio Ultra-Wideband (IR-UWB) radars to address these challenges, designing intelligent spatial-temporal information fusion for activity and vital sign monitoring. First, a local binary pattern (LBP) and energy features are extracted from FMCW radar, combined with the wavelet packet transform (WPT) features on IR-UWB radar for activity monitoring. Then the additional information guided fusing network (A-FuseNet) is proposed with a modified generative and adversarial structure for vital sign monitoring. A Cascaded Convolutional Neural Network (CCNN) module and a Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) module are designed as the fusion sub-network for vital sign information extraction and multisensory data fusion, while a discrimination sub-network is constructed to optimize the fused heartbeat signal. In addition, the activity and movement characteristics are introduced as additional information to guide the fusion and optimization. A multi-radar dataset with an FMCW and two IR-UWB radars in a cotton tent, a small room and a wide lobby is constructed, and the accuracies of activity and vital sign monitoring achieve 99.9% and 92.3% respectively. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority and robustness of the proposed framework.
