Application of Adaptive System to ECG Analysis: Noise Attenuation and ECG Detection

Abstract

ECG or electrocardiogram is a tool used to monitor the electrical activity of a heartbeat. However, the detectable signal is incredibly small, and an electrical noise could be relatively large. This means it is necessary to design a filter for better attenuating the noise below and beyond a certain frequency. Moreover, the abnormal ECG results from abnormal heart rate is the best notification for any potential heart diseases and should get notice as soon as possible. Therefore, this project focus on designing a system for both solving noise attenuation and ECG detection issues.
