The use of optical techniques in biomedical monitoring and diagnosis is becoming increasingly widespread, primarily because of the non-invasive nature of optically derived measurements. Physiological analysis is usually achieved by characterisation of the spectral or temporal properties of the interaction between light and the anatomy.

In order to accomplish our goal, we combined a sphygmomanometer and a photoplethysmograph module to design a non-invasive blood pressure module which can estimate the continuous blood pressure. First, the Oscillometric Method was used to obtain the diastolic pressure and the systolic pressure of a person. The two parameters are further applied to calibration of the voltage-to-pr

Abstract:
In this dissertation, photoplethysmography-based biomedical signal processing methods are developed and analyzed. The developed methods solve problems concerning the estimation of the heart rate during physical activity and the monitoring of cardiovascular health. For the estimation of heart rate during physical activity, two methods are presented that are very accurate in estimating the instantaneous heart rate at the wrist and, at the same time, are computationally efficient so that they can easily be integrated into wearables. In the context of cardiovascular health monitoring, a method for

It's detect signals include: the vasoconstriction low frequency signal and the pulse's high frequency signal.Since the transmission type of measurement is limited to only a few specific positions that have a short pathlength.The reflectance type can be more convenient to apply on most part of body surface.This study is to analyze the factors that determine the quality of light reflectance signal. These factors include: the emitter-detector distance, wavelength, light intensity, an
