A new real-time Electrocardiogram (ECG) data compression algorithm, CORNER, efficiently encodes signals with high fidelity. CORNER significantly improves signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and reduces root mean square error (RMSerr) compared to AZTEC at low bit rates.

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Signal Processing
  • Data Compression

Background:

  • High sampling rates in Electrocardiogram (ECG) generate excessive data, posing storage and transmission challenges.
  • Efficient data representation is crucial for maintaining clinical fidelity while minimizing data size.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce CORNER, a novel real-time algorithm for ECG data compression.
  • To evaluate CORNER's performance against the established AZTEC algorithm in terms of fidelity and efficiency.

Main Methods:

  • CORNER identifies significant ECG samples and encodes linear segments using linear interpolation.
  • It ensures a user-defined maximum error (epsilon) by selecting samples with significant displacement.
  • The algorithm prioritizes accurate coding in high-activity regions based on sample displacement computation.

Main Results:

  • CORNER demonstrates superior performance over AZTEC under identical bit rates.
  • Average Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) and Root Mean Square Error (RMSerr) achieved by CORNER were 27.0 dB and 5.668, respectively, at 0.79 bit/sample.
  • AZTEC achieved an average SNR (RMSerr) of 16.60 dB (19.368) at the same bit rate.

Conclusions:

  • CORNER offers a significant improvement in ECG data compression efficiency and signal fidelity.
  • The algorithm provides a practical solution for reducing ECG data size without compromising diagnostic quality.
  • CORNER represents a valuable advancement in real-time medical data compression technologies.
