چکیده

In recorded bioelectric signals, such as the electrocardiogram, sinusoidal interference from power lines or other sources causes distortion in the signal and may lead to misdiagnosis. For long or continuous recordings, adaptive filtering can be effective in minimizing the interference. For short recording, the options are limited. Subtractive methods have been used, but they do not distinguish between the interference and signal components with similar frequency. A new method can distinguish between signal and interference, so that the interference can be removed with very small residual error. In clinical recordings, the frequency of powerline interference is known, but the adaptive nature of the algorithm allows extension to cases when the frequency of interference is not known exactly.

A Novel Adaptive Algorithm for Sinusoidal Interference Cancellation

Indexing terms : adaptive algorithms, power line interference Abstract : A new method is presented for adaptive canceling a sine wave signal with known frequency in a time series. The system is characterized by the phase and amplitude parameters which are updated directly according to an LMS-style algorithm. Convergence behaviors and variances of these parameters are analyzed. It is demonstrate...

Cultural Issues in Understanding Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: Nature, Appraisals, and Control Strategies of Unwanted Intrusive Thoughts in Iranian Nonclinical Population

Objective: Recent developments in cognitive models of obsessive-compulsive disorder posits that nearly everyone experiences unwanted intrusive thoughts, images, and impulses from time to time. The intrusions are not particularly a problematic issue; it is more probably an interpretation or attempts to control in maladaptive or unrealistic ways. So, the present article aimed to assess the nature...

Noise Suppression for Intramagnet Electrocardiograms

Electrocardiogram monitoring, a routine practice when a patient presents a cardiovascular disturbance, is problematic during a magnetic resonance imaging session because the metallic leads, used to acquire the signal, act like antennae picking up noise interference from the magnet thereby distorting the electrocardiogram. A method is required to suppress this radio frequency noise as well as co...

Truncated orthogonal expansions of recurrent signals: equivalence to a periodic time-variant filter

In this work we show that orthogonal expansions of recurrent signals like electrocardiograms with a reduced number of coefficients can be considered as a periodic time-variant filter. Instantaneous impulse and frequency responses are analyzed for two cases: estimation of the coefficients with inner product and adaptive estimation with LMS algorithm.

Adaptive time-varying cancellation of wideband interferences in spread-spectrum communications based on time-frequency distributions

The aim of this paper is to propose an adaptive method for suppressing wideband interferences in spread spectrum (SS) communications. The proposed method is based on the time–frequency representation of the received signal from which the parameters of an adaptive time-varying interference excision filter are estimated. The approach is based on the generalized Wigner–Hough transform as an effect...
