Abstract
Heart- and respiration rate related signals were measured simultanously using reflection mode of photoplethysmography (PPG) through a fiber optic sensor. The sensor was attached to the ear-lobe. Both heart- and respiration related variations in blood perfusion could be observed after filtering the PE signal. The frequency content of the signal was observed by calculating the power spectral density.
