•Whether the magnitude of the Pulse Wave (PWm) affects the PWV was never previously experimentally investigated.•The Venous PWV measurement set-up allows to control the magnitude of the generated pulse wave.•In veins, a variation in the PWm linearly affects the corresponding PWV measurement.•PWm can...
