1.1 Background Chapter 1 Introduction About one third of human being’s life is spent in sleeping. A good sleep can help people refresh from their awake-time tiredness physically, mentally and emotionally. It increases people’s energy level and reduces people’s feeling of depression [1]. However, world widely, hundreds of millions of people are suffering from sleep disorder problems. These sleep disorders include sleep apnea, narcolepsy and various forms of insomnia [2]. Sleep apnea is a sleep disorder in which people repeatedly stop breathing during sleep. The stop may last for more than 10 seconds [3]. Sleep apnea can be categorized as central sleep apnea, obstructive sleep apnea and mixed apnea which is a combination of the two [2]. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is caused by muscle relaxation during sleep (see Figure 1.1). Figure 1.1 Obstructive sleep apnea [4] 1
