1.1 System Overview

The heart rate detection of PAH8001 is based on optical measurement technique that uses a light source and a detector to
detect cardio-vascular pulse wave that propagates through body. The detected signal (pulse wave) is called
photoplethysmography and its acronym in some literatures is PPG or PTG. The PPG signal reflects the blood movement in
the vessel, which goes from the heart to the fingertips through the blood vessels in a wave-like motion. Therefore, we can
use this PPG signal to estimate heart rate. This optical based technology could offer significant benefits to healthcare
application as it is noninvasive yet accurate and simple to use.
