The main function of fall radar is to detect falls and the main factor that affects how it works is height. There are two thresholds for this, one is the height at which the radar is mounted as well as the threshold height at which the fall detection is triggered. Currently, the radar only supports top mounting (that is, mounting in the ceiling position of a room). Based on your description, it looks like you are planning to test side-mounted, which we think could be one of the main reasons for false recognition of falls. Another reason is that you may not have set the parameters for the two heights of the radar correctly. You may need to take a little time to mount the radar on the ceiling and measure the mounting height to set the correct mounting height for the radar. Then, you need to find out what the approximate height above the ground is when the subject is detected as having fallen, and use that value to set the Height Threshold. that way, you won’t let the radar mistake the act of sitting down for a fall.
