R-peak detection is crucial in electrocardiogram (ECG) signal analysis. This study proposed an adaptive and time-efficient R-peak detection algorithm for ECG processing. First, wavelet multiresolution analysis was applied to enhance the ECG signal representation. Then, ECG was mirrored to convert large negative R-peaks to positive ones. After that, local maximums were calculated by the first-order forward differential approach and were truncated by the amplitude and time interval thresholds to locate the R-peaks. The algorithm performances, including detection accuracy and time consumption, were tested on the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database and the QT database. Experimental results showed that the proposed algorithm achieved mean sensitivity of 99.39%, positive predictivity of 99.49%, and accuracy of 98.89% on the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database and 99.83%, 99.90%, and 99.73%, respectively, on the QT database. By processing one ECG record, the mean time consumptions were 0.872 s and 0.763 s for the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database and QT database, respectively, yielding 30.6% and 32.9% of time reduction compared to the traditional Pan-Tompkins method.

Objective: The detection of QRS complexes is an important part of computer-aided analysis of electrocardiogram (ECG). However, most of the existing detection algorithms are mainly for single-lead ECG signals, which requires high quality of signal. If the signal quality decreases suddenly due to some interference, then the current algorithm is easy to cause misjudgment or missed detection. To improve the detection ability of QRS complexes under sudden interference, we study the QRS complexes information on multiple leads in-depth, and propose a two-lead joint detection algorithm of QRS complexes. Methods: Firstly, the suspected QRS complexes are screened on the main lead. For the suspected QRS complexes with low confidence and the complexes that may be missed, further accurate detection and joint judgment shall be carried out at the corresponding position of the auxiliary lead. At the same time, the adaptive threshold adjustment algorithm and backtracking mechanism are used to modify the detection results. Results: The proposed detection algorithm is validated using 48 ECG records of the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database, and achieves average detection accuracy of 99.71%, sensitivity of 99.88% and positive predictivity of 99.81%. Conclusion: The proposed algorithm has high accuracy, which can effectively deal with the sudden interference of ECG signal. Meanwhile, the algorithm requires small amount of computation, and can be embedded into hardware for real-time detection.

Abstract A multi-channel and high-speed FBG demodulator based STM32 is designed in this paper. The wavelength detection accuracy is improved using a difference of Gaussian (DoG) peak detection algorithm. The 16-channel FBG wavelengths are demodulated simultaneously and that the demodulation frequency can reach 1kHz. The experimental results show that the temperature sensitivity is 13.17 pm/ ºC. And meanwhile, the standard deviation and the average error of the FBG wavelength demodulated at the same temperature is 1.9 pm and 2.1 pm respectively.

In ECG signals accurate detection to the position of QRS complex is a key to automatic analysis and diagnosis system. And its premise is that effectively remove all kinds of noise interference in ECG signal. Here, a method of detecting QRS based on EMD and wavelet transform was presented which is aim to improve the anti-noise performance of the detection algorithm. It is combined EMD with the theory of singularity detecting based on wavelet transform modulus maxima method. It has the high detection accuracy and good precision that can give an effective way to the automatic analysis for ECG signal.
