Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) A Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) Frequency-Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar can provide various applications such as activity recognition and vital sign sensing. For these applications, it is essential to estimate a target’s location. In general, MIMO FMCW radar-based location estimation uses a range-angle map that expresses signal power against each range and angle. It could be possible to estimate an target’s location by detecting signal power that exceeds a threshold. However, noise and multipath components often exist over the range-angle map, which could bring a false alarm of an undesired location, depending on the threshold setting. To deal with this issue, it is highly demanded to reduce such noise components over the range-angle map. In this report, we propose Deep Image Prior (DIP)-based noise reduction method of the range-angle map. DIP is one of the unsupervised deep learning techniques that enable image denoising. In the proposed method, DIP is applied to the range-angle map calculated to reduce the noise components, and then the object location is detected over the denoised range-angle map based on Cell-Averaging CFAR (CA-CFAR), which is a typical threshold setting algorithm. Through the experiments to estimate human location in indoor environments, we confirmed that the proposed method with DIP could reduce the number of false alarms and estimate the human location with less sensitivity of the threshold setting, compared to the method without DIP.
