Classification of Body Movements in Ambulatory ECG Using Wavelet Transform, Adaptive Filter and Artificial Neural Networks

Sachin Darji,Rahul Kher*

Ambulatory ECG (A-ECG) monitoring provides electrical activity of the heart when a person is involved in doing normal routine activities. Thus, the recorded ECG signal consists of cardiac signal along with motion artifacts introduced due to person’s body movements during routine activities. Detection of motion artifacts due to different physical activities might help in further cardiac diagnosis. Ambulatory ECG signal analysis for detection of various body movements using Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and adaptive filtering approaches has been addressed in this paper. The ECG signals of five healthy subjects (aged between 22 to 30 years) were recorded while the person performs various body movements like up and down movement of left hand, up and down movement of right hand, waist twisting movement while standing and change from sitting down on chair to standing up movement in lead I configuration using BIOPAC MP 36 data acquisition system. The features of motion artifact signal, extracted using Gabor transform, have been fed to the train the artificial neural network (ANN) for classifying body movements.
