    This study presents a spectral filtering solution to reduce baseline wander in exercise electrocardiography (ECG). Digital linear phase filters effectively remove noise, enabling clearer ECG readings during physical activity.

    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Signal Processing
    • Cardiology

    Background:

    • Baseline wander poses a significant challenge for real-time electrocardiography (ECG) analysis, particularly during exercise.
    • Artifacts like baseline wander can obscure crucial diagnostic information in ECG signals.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and validate a spectral filtering method for continuous, real-time reduction of baseline wander in exercise ECG.
    • To demonstrate the efficacy of digital linear phase filters for ECG signal processing during physical exertion.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized spectral filtering techniques, specifically digital linear phase filters, for real-time noise reduction.
    • Determined filter specifications based on experimental data and physiological parameters like heart rate.

  • Developed specialized hardware to implement simultaneous real-time filtering for four-lead ECG.

    • Main Results:

    • Established the validity of using high-pass filtering with low cut-off frequencies (approaching heart rate) for ECG baseline wander reduction.
    • Experimental results confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed filtering approach.
    • The specialized hardware successfully performed real-time filtering on multiple ECG leads concurrently.

    Conclusions:

    • Spectral filtering, particularly with digital linear phase filters, is a viable and effective solution for real-time baseline wander reduction in exercise ECG.
    • The developed hardware provides an efficient means for implementing this filtering technique in clinical or research settings.
    • This approach enhances the quality of ECG data acquired during physical activity, improving diagnostic accuracy.
