Random gaps during sleep measures

hi all,

has anybody noticed errors - gaps - in sleep measurements (see pic.)? I remember all was good using my first and second F5X.. I have experienced this issue on 3rd F5X (after warranty replacement).. and now seeing the same on F5X+.. Obviously this gaps are corresponding with the gaps in HR monitoring.. Still I do not get why it sometimes does not catch any HR during sleep for couple of minutes..

note: I always use the latest beta FW - in case you think it can make a difference..

thanks!

I think this is issue regarding software HR.
Because in my case when i didn't see green/red lights f5x+ show me my pulse is 240.
At night oxygen works only from 00-04 at every nights.

From my perspectivesleep measure in all garmin watchs is very poor.
If you will see others companies have better software to measure sleep example:
1) show you the score of the sleep
2) Can wake up you when you don't sleep deeply
3) detect if you sleep at day

Unfortunately, both the OHR and the Sleep feature are very poorly executed by Garmin on these watches. I had much better results, HR and Sleep, with a 4 year old Fitbit Surge. Pretty sad, really.
