Abstract

In photoacoustic (PA) technology, piezoelectrical transducer (PZT) is the most frequently used detector for the PA signal generated by weakly absorbing liquids. Although PZT has high sensitivity, its output signals are distorted and become exponentially damped sinusoidal signal [, which is a barrier to extract correct information of glucose. Therefore it is necessary to find a proper way to extract glucose information. In this paper, a method of parameter estimation based on Laplace wavelet correlation filtering and Least Square Estimation is proposed to extract the information of PA signals, which includes signal decomposition, fitting and glucose parameter extraction. The Laplace wavelet correlation filtering is introduced to decompose piezoelectrical signals into impulse responses of single mode subsystems [2], followed by a Least Square Estimator to fit PA signal and estimate parameters of the exponentially damped sinusoidal model [3]. Good agreement between the fitting model and the PA signal is obtained. Experiments are carried out on finding meaningful parameters indicating glucose among estimated parameters of the exponentially damped sinusoidal model.
