Abstract

In this paper, we have developed PPG pillow system for unconstrained respiration monitoring during sleep. The system employs a pillow containing a PPG sensor and a simple respiration extraction algorithm. The results showed that the extracted respiratory rhythm was found to have close relations with the reference signal. The system has an advantage of processing simplicity. A follow-up study should be performed to evaluate the system in terms of breath intake.
