In this paper, we aim to identify passengers with different baggage by analyzing the micro-Doppler radar signatures corresponding to different kinds of gaits, which is helpful to improve the efficiency of security check in airports. After performing time-frequency analysis on the X-band and K-band radar data, three kinds of micro-Doppler features, i.e., the period, the Doppler offset, and the bandwidth, are extracted from the time-frequency domain. By combining the features extracted by dual-band radar with the one-versus-one support vector machine (SVM) classifier, three kinds of gaits, i.e., walking with no bag, walking with only one carry-on baggage by one hand, and walking with one carry-on baggage by one hand and one handbag by another hand, can be accurately classified. The experimental results based on the measured data demonstrate that the classification accuracy using dual-band radar is higher than that using only a single-band radar sensor.
