DENOISING OF ECG SIGNAL USING UNDECIMATED WAVELET TRANSFORM

Baliram S. Gayal, F.I. Shaikh

We are Using an individual’s electrocardiogram (ECG) as a means for checking individuals heart functioning and abnormalities (diseases) occurred in it. However, the presence of noise in an ECG trace complicates the analysis of ECG signal for identification of functioning and abnormalities in the heart. The primary noise sources in ECG are power line interference, electromyography (EMG) noise, electrode contact noise, motion artifacts, and instrumentation noise. In this research work described elimination of the noises occurred in ECG. Purpose of denoising ECG is to obtain reliable and clear signal for diagnosis purpose while preserving as much of the underlying subject information as possible. This research work is based on the use of the Undecimated Wavelet Transform (UWT)[1] To get a better identification of ECG. To read ECG samples from MIT database we required WFDB toolbox. ECG Denoising is carried out using the Wavelet Coiflet and Daubechies filter. These were chosen because their scaling functions are closely related to the shape of the ECG and fitting very well with the applications constraints [2].Here ECG signal samples were taken from MIT/BIH data base and processed in MATLAB using UWT
