  • Abstract
    A ring-type pulse oximeter sensor attached to the finger and its 24-hour ambulatory heart rate monitoring system are presented. The PCB has been designed with a light-to-frequency converter and the CPU with a built-in Zigbee stack for simple and low power consumption. Also designed is the algorithm using a least square estimator to calibrate various signal distortions caused by motion artefacts for a proper accuracy.
