    Abstract: A sleep aid system and an operation method thereof are disclosed. The sleep aid system includes a sleep aid device including a retrieving module, a processing module, and a transmitting module, and a server. The retrieving module retrieves a brainwave signal including specific frequency band signals. The processing module analyzes the brainwave signal to obtain an index in each of the specific frequency band signals and calculates a sleepless degree parameter representing one of at least five brainwave states regarding sleep accordingly. The transmitting module transmits a parameter signal corresponding to the sleepless degree parameter. The server receives the parameter signal from the transmitting module. The server stores comparison data, compares the parameter signal to the comparison data, and generates a first feedback signal according to a comparison result. The first feedback signal includes a command to switch an audio file or stream which is currently being played.
