Oxygen uptake (VO2) kinetics provide information about the ability to respond to the\nincreased physical load during a constant work rate test (CWRT). Box-Jenkins transfer function (BJTF)\nmodels can extract kinetic features from the phase II VO2 response during a CWRT, without\nbeing affected by unwanted noise contributions (e.g., phase I contribution or measurement noise).\nCWRT data of 18 COPD patients were used to compare model fits and kinetic feature values\nbetween BJ-TF models and three typically applied exponential modelling methods......................
