Fiber Bragg Grating Sensors for Cardiorespiratory Monitoring: A Review
Abstract
Systems for cardiorespiratory monitoring hold tremendous promise for many applications in clinical settings, harsh environments, sports science and telemonitoring. However, the translation in the real world is challenging because it is difficult to develop unobtrusive and comfortable systems with high metrological performance. Recent advances in fiber optic technology in the field of sensing and their application to instrument wearable systems can tackle the main issues in this field. In this work, we focused on the recent advances in cardiorespiratory monitoring of fiber Bragg grating (FBGs) sensors which are one of the most popular sensors based on fiber optic technology. We provide an overview of the FBGs working principle and performance. We also describe the most popular and promising configurations based on FBGs used for cardiorespiratory monitoring.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
