title: Cancellation of motion artifact induced by exercise for PPG-based heart rate sensing.
abstract: Heart rate (HR) sensing during exercise is essential for medical, healthcare and sport physiological purposes. Photo-Plethysmo-Graphy (PPG) is a simple and non-invasive technique for HR sensing, but it is highly sensitive to motion artifact. This paper proposes a cancellation technique of motion artifact in PPG-based HR sensing for a man during exercise. The canceller is equipped with two sensors; one is a normal PPG sensor where an LED/Photo-Detector (PD) contacts the skin to detect Blood Volume Pulse (BVP) (+motion artifact) and the other is a motion artifact sensor where an LED/PD does not contact the skin to detect only motion artifact. Experimental results show that the proposed technique, which is implemented in adaptive algorithms, can sense HR correctly by cancelling motion artifact induced by exercises such as running and jumping.
