Abstract
A fibre optic sensor structure is proposed for recovering the most rel evant physiological parameters aiming at identifying the different sle ep phases. The device comprises a multimode loss fibre optic sensor bu ilt into a watch casing. The sensor structure generates micro-deformat ions and allows a sensor to be made which is sensitive enough to detec t the composite signal from the patient's wrist.
