发明名称 Method and apparatus for demodulating signals in a pulse oximetry system
摘要 The invention relates to a pulse oximetry system, comprising a modulation signal generator, said modulation signal generator generating a first modulation signal comprising a first pulse which repeats at a first repetition frequency, said modulation signal generator generating a second modulation signal comprising a second pulse which also repeats at said first repetition frequency, said second pulse occurring at non-overlapping times with respect to said first pulse; a first transmitter which emits electromagnetic energy at a first wavelength in response to said first pulse; a second transmitter which emits electromagnetic energy at a second wavelength in response to said second pulse; a detector which receives electromagnetic energy at said first and second wavelengths after passing through a portion of a subject and which generates a detector output signal responsive to the received electromagnetic energy, said detector output signal including a signal component responsive to attenuation of said electromagnetic energy at said first wavelength and a signal component responsive to attenuation of said electromagnetic energy at said second wavelength; an analog to digital converter which converts said detector output into a sequence of digital values; a decimator which decimates said sequence of digital values to produce a first decimated sequence according to a first decimation rate; a first demodulator which multiplies said first decimated sequence by a first demodulation sequence and generates a first demodulated output signal; a second demodulator which multiplies said decimated sequence by a second demodulation sequence and generates a second demodulated output signal; and a third demodulator which multiplies said decimated sequence by a third demodulation sequence and generates a noise estimate, said noise estimate provided to an input of an adaptive algorithm, said adaptive algorithm configured to select said first demodulation sequence to reduce noise in said first demodulated output signal and to select said second demodulation sequence to reduce noise in said second demodulated output signal.
