Processing of ECG Signals Detected by Portable Devices

Аннотация

Specific features of processing ECG signals (ECS) detected by portable devices are considered. ECS enhancement against a noisy background is achieved by ECG decomposition with further selection of components forming the useful signal. Extremum filtering rather than empirical mode decomposition is used to reduce the computational effort without affecting the results of decomposition. This advantage of extremum filtering allows it to be used in portable electrocardiograph software.
