The use of continuous gait monitoring devices can aid in early interventions and risk detection in a frequent and accurate manner. The paper presents a study which utilizes an ultra-wide band (UWB) radar for gait speed detection. The experiment was performed on six healthy young individuals in three different speed categories i.e. slow, normal and fast. The speed measurements from the radar were then compared against the data gathered from a GAITRite mat (the gold standard commercial sensor-loaded mat for the detection of walking speed) to determine the accuracy of data acquired from the radar.</span></p>
