A wearable respiration monitoring system having a transmitter coil that is adapted to generate and transmit multi-frequency AC magnetic fields and a plurality of receiving coils adapted to detect variable strengths in the AC magnetic fields and generate AC magnetic field strength signals representing anatomical displacements of a monitored subject. The wearable monitoring system further having an electronics module that is adapted to receive the AC magnetic field strength signals and determine at least one respiratory disorder associated with the monitored subject as a function of the AC magnetic field strength signals.
