Abstract :
A wireless resonant plethysmography for respiration monitoring and obstructive sleep apnea detection is presented. Inductive coupling is utilised between a respiration sensor and measurement module for unconstrained detection of respiratory motion. The results of this system are compared with those of a conventional wired monitor and better performance is reported.
