Abstract Background The pulse oximeter a medical device capable of measuring blood oxygen saturation SpO2 has been shown to be a valuable device for monitoring patients in critical conditions. In order to incorporate the technique into a wearable device which can be used in ambulatory settings the influence of motion artifacts on the estimated SpO2 must be reduced. This study investigates the use of the smoothed psuedo Wigner-Ville distribution SPWVD for the reduction of motion artifacts affecting pulse oximetry. Methods The SPWVD approach is compared with two techniques currently used in this field . the weighted moving average WMA and the fast Fourier transform FFT approaches. SpO2 and pulse rate were estimated from a photoplethysmographic PPG signal recorded when subject is in a resting position as well as in the act of performing four types of motions horizontal and vertical movements of the hand and bending and pressing motions of the finger.
