An efficient double ring design for a miniaturized, telemetric photoplethysmograph sensor was developed to minimize motion artifact and optimize power consumption for continuous monitoring.
A miniaturized, telemetric, photoplethysmograph sensor for long-term, continuous monitoring is presented in this paper. The sensor, called a "ring sensor", is attached to a finger base for monitoring beat-to-beat pulsation, and the data is sent to a host computer via a RF transmitter. Two major design issues are addressed: one is to minimize motion artifact and the other is to minimize the consumption of battery power. An efficient double ring design is developed to lower the influence of external force, acceleration, and ambient light, and to hold the sensor gently and securely on the skin, so that the circulation at the finger may not be obstructed. In this paper, the basic concept of mechanical and electrical design is provided. Total power consumption is analyzed in relation to characteristics of individual components, sampling rate, and CPU clock speed. Optimal operating conditions are obtained for minimizing the power budget.
