Pulse wave detection apparatus
First Claim
1. An optical pulse wave detection apparatus comprising:
- a light emitting element that emits light to a living organism;
a light receiving element that receives a reflected light of the light that is reflected by the living organism;
a first control unit for obtaining a first signal by causing the light emitting element to emit the light of a first light quantity, and by causing the light receiving element to receive the reflected light of the light of the first light quantity;
a second control unit for obtaining a second signal by causing the light emitting element to emit the light of a second light quantity that is smaller than the first light quantity, and by causing the light receiving element to receive the reflected light of the light of the second light quantity; and
a pulse wave detection unit for detecting a pulse wave of the living organism based on the first signal and the second signal.

Abstract
An optical pulse wave detection apparatus includes a light emitting element, a light receiving element, a first control unit, a second control unit, and a pulse wave detection unit. The first control unit obtains a first signal by causing the light emitting element to emit light of a first light quantity, and by causing the light receiving element to receive reflected light, which is reflected by a living organism, of the light of the first light quantity. The second control unit obtains a second signal by causing the light emitting element to emit the light of a second light quantity that is smaller than the first light quantity, and by causing the light receiving element to receive the reflected light of the light of the second light quantity. The pulse wave detection unit detects a pulse wave of the living organism based on the first and second signals.
