Photoplethysmography (PPG) is well suited for wearable health applications, but has a lower frequency spectrum than electrocardiography (ECG) and is more affected by motion artifacts. In this study, ten signal filters from three categories were investigated in combination with different sampling rates to evaluate their effects on PPG signal quality. A correlation and accuracy analysis was performed comparing the interbeat intervals detected in PPG and ECG using Pearson correlation and absolute error. The results showed that specific filters with sampling rates as low as 40 Hz perform well in detecting autonomic neuropathy. The results highlight the potential of PPG with optimized filters and sampling rates for clinical screening of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) in wearable health monitoring.
