Abstract:
A method for measuring and analyzing blood pressure using PPG includes receiving, by a computer, a PPG signal from a finger of a subject, dividing, by the computer, a normalization pulse wave signal derived from the received PPG signal into one or more predetermined windows, extracting, by the computer, a maximum lower amplitude value from one of the respective divided windows, extracting, by the computer, a target feature pattern from the extracted maximum lower amplitude value, deriving, by the computer, a first target unique vector and a second target unique vector with respect to the target feature pattern, using a linear discriminant analysis (LDA) algorithm to display the first target unique vector and the second target unique vector of the target feature pattern on 2-dimensional (2D) graph, and providing, by the computer, a blood pressure state of the subject, using the 2D graph.
