Install monit, create a file in /etc/monit.d/ directory like 
"/etc/monit.d/freeradius" and add something like the following to that file:

"
check process freeradius with pidfile "/var/run/freeradius/radiusd.pid"
	start = "/etc/init.d/freeradius start"
	stop = "/etc/init.d/freeradius stop"

	if failed host 192.168.1.1 port 1812 type UDP  then restart

	if cpu usage is greater than 60 percent for 2 cycles then alert
	if cpu usage > 90% for 5 cycles then restart
        if totalmem usage > 40% for 5 cycles then restart
	if 3 restarts within 4 cycles then timeout
"

and restart monit. Unfortunately monit does not yet support RADIUS protocol 
checks.
