Adaptive Symlet filter based on ECG baseline wander removal

Abstract

In this paper, proposed a new approach of combining the hybrid soft computing technique called Adaptive Symlet Wavelet Transform (ASWT) filter. The baseline wanders (BW) noise removal from an ECG signals to minimize distortion of the S-T segment of the ECG signal specially that have high sampling frequencies. Therefore, when using Symlet Wavelet Transform (SWT) to analysis the ECG signal can cause problems to analysis, exclusively when examining the content of the ECG signal at low-frequency such as S-T segment. The corresponding frequency components of the approximation coefficients at level number seven are (0-3.9) Hz. Since the BW frequency is below 0.5 Hz and ST segment frequency between (0.67-4) Hz. The adaptive filter with a unity reference signal used to remove the BW noise below 0.5 Hz from the lowest level of the approximation coefficient of the decomposed ECG signal. The denoising output from adaptive filter and the output from SWT (the other detail coefficients) will use as an input to ISWT for reconstruction ECG signals with the remove BW signal. This method represents a very effective filter for BW noise removal, as it does not need for any computation process of reference point.

Tropical algebra with high-order matrix for multiple-noise removal

“…Tropical addition can replace traditional addition as a more effective filter in denoising. In 2020, Nahar 46 proposed a new method combined with hybrid soft computing technology-adaptive wavelet transform (ASWT) filtering. It can be concluded that tropical addition is the optimal scheme for noise filtering, and the filter based on tropical addition can achieve the filtering effect more efficiently and easily.…”
