The main aim of ECG signal enhancement is to separate the required signal components from the unwanted artifacts. Adaptive filter-based ECG enhancement helps in detecting time varying potentials and also helps to track the dynamic variations of the signals. LMS-based adaptive recurrent filter is used to obtain the impulse response of normal QRS complexes. It is also used for arrhythmia detection in ambulatory ECG recordings. Adaptive filters self-modify its frequency response to change the behavior in time. This property of adaptive filter allows it to adapt its response to change in the input signal characteristics. A major problem in adaptive filtering is the computational complexity of adaptive algorithm when the unknown system has a long impulse response and therefore requires a large number of taps. The wavelet transform is a time-scale representation method with a basis function called mother wavelet. In wavelet transform, the input signal is subsequently decomposed into subbands. Wavelet transform thresholding in the subband gives better performance of denoising.

This study investigates the ability of recursive least squares (RLS) and least mean square (LMS) adaptive filtering algorithms to predict and quickly track unknown systems. Tracking unknown system behavior is important if there are other parallel systems that must follow exactly the same behavior at the same time. The adaptive algorithm can correct the filter coefficients according to changes in unknown system parameters to minimize errors between the filter output and the system output for the same input signal. The RLS and LMS algorithms were designed and then examined separately, giving them a similar input signal that was given to the unknown system. The difference between the system output signal and the adaptive filter output signal showed the performance of each filter when identifying an unknown system. The two adaptive filters were able to track the behavior of the system, but each showed certain advantages over the other. The RLS algorithm had the advantage of faster convergence and fewer steady-state errors than the LMS algorithm, but the LMS algorithm had the advantage of less computational complexity.


Identification of system is one of the major applications of an adaptive filters, mainly Least Mean Square (LMS) algorithm, because of its ease in calculations, the ability to withstand or overcome any conditions. The unknown System can be a FIR or an IIR filter. Same input is fed into both undefined system (which is unknown to us) and the adaptive filter, their outputs will be subtracted and the error subtracted signal will be given to adaptive filter. The adaptive filter is modified until the system which is unknown and the adaptive filter becomes relatively equal. System identification defines the type and functionality of the system. By utilizing the weights, the output of the system for any input can be predicted.

The nonlinearity of the electric vehicle DC charging equipment and the complexity of the charging environment lead to the complex and changeable DC charging signal of the electric vehicle. It is urgent to study the distortion signal recognition method suitable for the electric vehicle DC charging. Focusing on the characteristics of fundamental and ripple in DC charging signal, the Kalman filter algorithm is used to establish the matrix model, and the state variable method is introduced into the filter algorithm to track the parameter state, and the amplitude and phase of the fundamental waves and each secondary ripple are identified; In view of the time-varying characteristics of the unsteady and abrupt signal in the DC charging signal, the stratification and threshold parameters of the wavelet transform are corrected, and a multi-resolution method is established to identify and separate the unsteady and abrupt signals. Identification method of DC charging distortion signal of electric vehicle based on Kalman/modified wavelet transform is used to decompose and identify the signal characteristics of the whole charging process. Experiment results demonstrate that the algorithm can accurately identify ripple, sudden change and unsteady wave during charging. It has higher signal to noise ratio and lower mean root mean square error.

In this paper, we focus on the design of oversampled filter banks and the resulting framelets. The framelets obtained exhibit improved shift invariant properties over decimated wavelet transform. Shift invariance has applications in many areas, particularly denoising, coding and compression. Our contribution here is on filter bank completion. In addition, we propose novel factorization methods to design wavelet filters from given scaling filters.

Aiming at the large calculation workload of adaptive algorithm in adaptive filter based on wavelet transform, affecting the filtering speed, a wavelet-based neural network adaptive filter is constructed in this paper. Since the neural network has the ability of distributed storage and fast self-evolution, use Hopfield neural network to implement adaptive filter LMS algorithm in this filter so as to improve the speed of operation. The simulation results prove that, the new filter can achieve rapid real-time denoising.

In this analysis, the prevailing role of the wavelet transform in the interrogation of the ECG is discussed in detail, where both the constant and the discrete transform are considered in turn.A Wavelet denoising is functional on the original signal to eradicate high frequency noise, and then a process based on Meyer wavelet transform combined with adaptive filter is functional to eradicate the motion artifact. This approach uses Meyer Wavelet decomposition to extract the motion artifact, which is subsequently utilized as the reference input of an adaptive filter for noise cancellation. The technique diminishes the overhead of the circuit because it does not need a separate collection of reference input signal which link to noise. Testing results illustrate that this approach can efficiently remove motion artifact and make better the signal quality.
