Comparison of Bioradiolocation and Respiratory Plethysmography Signals in Time and Frequency Domains on the Base of Cross-Correlation and Spectral Analysis

Abstract EN

Comparison of bioradiolocation and standard respiratory plethysmography signals during simultaneous registration of different types of the human breathing movements is performed in both time and frequency domains.

For all couples of synchronized signals corresponding to bioradiolocation and respiratory plethysmography methods, the cross-correlation and spectral functions are calculated, and estimates of their generalized characteristics are defined.

The obtained results consider bioradiolocation to be a reliable remote sensing technique for noncontact monitoring of breathing pattern in medical applications.
