In an apparatus for measuring biological information using a radio wave, a technique for acquiring an index related to a setting position of the apparatus with respect to a measurement site is provided. A biological information measurement apparatus () according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes a transmitter () configured to transmit a radio wave toward a measurement site of a living body; a receiver () configured to receive a reflected wave of the radio wave reflected by the measurement site and output a waveform signal of the reflected wave; a feature extraction unit () configured to extract information indicative of a feature of a waveform from the waveform signal; a determination unit () configured to determine whether a setting position of the biological information measurement apparatus with respect to the measurement site satisfies a condition corresponding to a preset reference position based on the extracted information indicative of the feature of the waveform; and an output unit () configured to output information indicative of a determination result determined by the determination unit.

Biological information measurement apparatus, method, and program

An embodiment of the present invention provides a sphygmomanometer that is worn on a measured part of the left wrist of a subject (user) for use. In the sphygmomanometer, on an inner peripheral surface of a band-like body that constitutes a base of a band, a portion for installing a pressure cuff and a protrusion for installing an antenna substrate are separately provided, and the pressure cuff and the antenna substrate are respectively installed on these portions.
