Abstract: A wrist-worn electronic device comprises a housing including a bottom wall configured to contact a user's wrist, three optical transmitters, an optical receiver and a processor. The first optical transmitter, the second optical transmitter and the third optical transmitter transmit a plurality of optical signals, each having a unique wavelength, that pass through a user's skin and are received by the optical receiver that generates corresponding electronic signals. The optical signals output by the first optical transmitter traveling along a first signal path, the optical signals output by the second optical transmitter traveling along a second signal path and the optical signals output by the third optical transmitter traveling along a third signal path, wherein the first signal path substantially overlaps with the second signal path and the third signal path. The processor is configured determine physiological information about the user based on the electronic signals.

Abstract: An electronic fitness device comprises a housing, a first optical transmitter, a second optical transmitter, an optical receiver, and a processor. The housing is positioned partly in contact with a user's skin. The first optical transmitter emits a first optical signal. The second optical transmitter emits a second optical signal. The optical receiver receives the optical signals and generates a first photoplethysmogram (PPG) signal resulting from the received first optical signal and a second PPG signal resulting from the received second optical signal. The processor receives the PPG signals, determines a pressure metric value based on a characteristic of a waveform of the first PPG signal and a characteristic of a waveform of the second PPG signal, and determines a pressure compensation factor based on the determined pressure metric value, the first wavelength corresponding to the first optical signal and the second wavelength corresponding to the second optical signal.

Abstract: An electronic wearable device comprises a housing configured to contact a user's skin, first and second modulators, first and second optical transmitters coupled with the first and second modulators, an optical receiver, and receive processing circuits. The first and second modulators output a first electronic signal having a first carrier frequency and a second electronic signal having a second carrier frequency. The first optical transmitter outputs a first optical signal having the first carrier frequency into the user's skin. The second optical transmitter outputs a second optical signal having the second carrier frequency into the user's skin. The optical receiver receives the optical signals from the skin as a broadband signal. The receive processor circuits output a first photoplethysmogram signal corresponding to the first optical signal based on the first carrier frequency and a second photoplethysmogram signal corresponding to the second optical signal based on the second carrier frequency.
