Abstract :
A direct measurement of airflow is inconvenient and not well tolerated for long-term monitoring. Indirect measurement methods are not always satisfactory. We propose here a multi-sensors approach which can improve not only the pathologic events caracterisation but the detection of indirect measurement artefacts as well.
