1. A non-invasive continuous blood pressure monitoring system, comprising:

  • a first sensor configured to send a first UWB electromagnetic pulses to an upper site of a blood vessel and receive a first reflected UWB electromagnetic pulses with phase variations caused by a pressure wave propagating in the blood vessel;

    a second sensor configured to send a second UWB electromagnetic pulses to a lower site of the blood vessel and receive a second reflected UWB electromagnetic pulses with phase variations caused by the pressure wave propagating in the blood vessel; and

    a signal-processing and blood pressure displaying device configured to calculate an estimated blood pressure by taking into consideration a propagation time of the pressure wave from the upper site to the lower site in the blood vessel.
