Abstract

Disclosed embodiments pertain to the measurement of heart rate in the presence of motion and noise. Spectral peaks in measurements by an optical sensor are compared with spectral peaks obtained from amotion sensor signal measurements, to obtain a fundamental frequency in the optical sensor signal, where the fundamental frequency is associated with a user's heart rate. A first heart rate may be estimated based on the fundamental frequency. A variety of quality metrics may be determined for the first heart rate estimate. A second estimated heart rate may be determined based by processing a frequency domain representation of the optical sensor signal based on a frequency domain representation of the motion sensor signal. One or more of the previously determined quality metrics may be dynamically adjusted based on a comparison of first and second estimated heart rates.

Description

[0001] Cross reference of related applications [0002] This application claims the rights and priority of the U.S. non-provisional application No. 14 / 741,425 entitled "ROBUST HEART RATEESTIMATION" filed on June 16, 2015, and the application is assigned to this acceptor Let it be incorporated into this article by reference in its entirety. Technical field [0003] The present invention generally relates to devices, systems and methods for biometric measurement including cardiovascular measurement such as heart rate. Background technique [0004] Modern mobile devices may include sensors for measuring biometric information, such as optical sensors. For example, a photoplethysmogram (PPG) sensor obtains a volume measurement value of blood vessels near the skin surface. When the heart pumps blood, the resulting pressure pulse causes blood vessels to change. The pressure pulse expands the arteries and small arteries in the skin tissue. For example, optical sensors such as PPG sensor...
