Detection, localization, and tracking of people in 2D or 3D space using Ultra-wideband (UWB) short-range sensors is a subject of worldwide intensive research. In this paper, we describe a proposal for a novel software called UWB-PerLoc-2D3D. This software has been created in a MATLAB programming environment and designed to process UWB radar signals for the purpose of movement monitoring of human targets in 2D and 3D space. We present an evaluation of the proposed software properties as well as examples of its utilization in practice.
