Abstract: This study introduces a real-time sleep monitoring system using optical fiber sensors and threshold-based and neural network based turnover detection, enabling non-invasive extraction of heart and respiratory rates with high accuracy for clinical and home environments and addressing the growing need for non-invasive and user-friendly sleep assessment tools. The system consists of a single mode fiber optic sensor for data collection, a signal acquisition board for demodulation and transmission, and a software platform for real-time data processing, visualization and storage.
This dissertation details the design and implementation of the optical fiber sensor, the system setup, and the optimizations made for real-time monitoring and sleep staging. The system's performance is evaluated through experimental results, demonstrating its ability to accurately capture BCG waveforms and extract physiological parameters such as HR and RR. The system's latency is measured to ensure real-time capabilities, and two rollover detection algorithms are introduced to handle signal interference during sleep.
The results show that the system can effectively monitor sleep patterns, with potential applications in healthcare for continuous health monitoring, wearable devices, and remote patient monitoring.
