  Abstract

The Holter electrocardiogram is used in the diagnosis of a arrhythmia after attaching to body for tewnty-four hours or more. But it is difficult to analyze the ECG signal because of various noise types. In Holter electrocardiogram, the most important problem in recording ECG signal is a baseline wandering, which is occurred by rhythm of respiration and muscle contraction attaching to an electrode. Therefore, advanced R wave detection method using wavelet and adaptive threshold is presented in this paper. For this purpose, we removed baseline wandering of low frequency band and made a summed signals that are composed of two high frequency bands including frequency component of QRS complex using the wavelet filter. And then we designed R wave detection algorithm using the adaptive threshold and window through RR interval. For evaluation of the suggested R wave detection Algorithm, we compared our algorithm with existing algorithms using the MIT-BIH database. Our algorithm showed the accuracy of 99.76% and the higher performance of R wave detection than existing algorithms.
