The pulse amplitude of fingertip volume could be improved by selecting the vascular dense area and applying appropriate pressure above it. In view of this phenomenon, this paper used Comsol Multiphysics 5.6 (Comsol, Sweden), the finite element analysis software of multi-physical field coupling simulation, to establish the vascular tissue model of a single small artery in fingertips for simulation. Three dimensional Navier-Stokes equations were solved by finite element method, the velocity field and pressure distribution of blood were calculated, and the deformation of blood vessels and surrounding tissues was analyzed. Based on Lambert Beer's Law, the influence of the longitudinal compression displacement of the lateral light surface region and the tissue model on the light intensity signal is investigated. The results show that the light intensity signal amplitude could be increased and its peak value could be reduced by selecting the area with dense blood vessels. Applying deep pressure to the tissue increased the amplitude and peak of the signal. It is expected that the simulation results combined with the previous experimental experience could provide a feasible scheme for improving the quality of finger volume pulse signal.
