Towards a Continuous
Non-Invasive Cuffless
Blood Pressure Monitoring
System Using PPG:
Systems and Circuits Review
Guoxing Wang, Mohamed Atef, and Yong Lian

Abstract
This paper presents an overview of the cuffless, continuous time,
non-invasive blood pressure measuring devices (cNIBP) based on
photoplethysmography (PPG). The cNIBP fundamental challenges,

such as motion artifacts (MAs), noise, low PPG signal amplitude
with large DC components, and possible solutions are discussed.
Techniques and circuits for MAs reduction, DC photocurrent cancellation, and sensitivity improvements are presented. To enhance
the BP system performance, both the optimization of the integrated
PPG receiver design and the reduction of the LED driver power
consumption are introduced. Useful design considerations are proposed for designers to improve the PPG-based BP system accuracy.
