    Abstract : Reducing unscheduled maintenance is important for aircraft operators. There are significant costs if flights must be delayed or cancelled, for example, if spares are not available and have to be shipped across the world. READ MORE

  5. 3. Photoplethysmographic heart and respiratory rate monitoring : instrument design and evaluation

    Author : Håkan Ugnell; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : A new optical heart and respiratory rate monitor utilising the photoplethysmographic (PPG) signal is presented.The PPG method, first developed in the 1930s, is based on the fact that incident light to the skin surface is absorbed, scattered and reflected in tissue and blood.
