Why the gaps in respiration rate?

Garmin 6xPro Solar - 21.00 firmware.

Does anyone have any thoughts on why my respiration rate would have big gaps during a workout? Thanks in advance!!

Do you have similar gaps in heart rate? Are you using WHR or strap? Respiration rate requires good HRV data to work so it is possible there were some communication issues during those times. Has it happened before?

I should have included that. I have been using the Polar A10 HRM. There is no gap in the heart rate. When I run with my Scoche Rhythm+, it puts gaps in throughout the run no matter how I wear it. The Polar is pretty consistent.

The H10 passes HRV (R-R intervals), your Scoche doesn't do HRV, although it will need to 'fake' it if connected via ANT as its part of the ANT+ HR standard.

My Polar Verity Sense also shows gaps in respiration, as it too doesn't provide valid HRV.
