Noise removal of ECG signal using recursive least square algorithms

Abstract EN

This paper shows an approach for Electromyography (ECG) signal processing based on linear and nonlinear adaptive filtering using Recursive Least Square (RLS) algorithm to remove two kinds of noise that affected the ECG signal.

These are the High Frequency Noise (HFN) and Low Frequency Noise (LFN).

Simulation is performed in Matlab.

The ECG, HFN and LFN signals used in this study were downloaded from ftp : / / ftp.
