In this paper, a novel human respiration detection method based on angular velocity is proposed for continuous acquisition and analysis of respiratory signals. Using patient-specific information derived from a wearable sensor, our proposed system is capable of monitoring human respiration and assists in identifying potential respiratory disorders by relying on pre-defined simple procedures. Specifically, our signal verification platform is equipped with a carbon dioxide concentration detection device in order to acquire a synchronous signal. In addition, a median filter method is used to extract the respiratory waveform from the original signal. The obtained angular velocity waveform pertaining to human respiration is then compared to the respiratory carbon dioxide concentration waveform, and the validity of our designated parameters is verified. The test results demonstrate that our implemented system is appropriate for unobtrusive respiratory signals acquisition and analysis; therefore, it can be considered a potential alternative for physiological monitoring and respiratory disorders screening.
