Course Goal / Objective
To introduce students to the signal processing techniques when applied specifically to biomedical signals: ECG, EEG and EMG. To teach methods for extracting Information from these signals and demonstrate practical implementations of signal processing techniques to biomedical signals.
Course Content
Biomedical signals and their origins: Electrocardiogram (ECG), Electroencephalography (EEG), Electromyogram (EMG). Basic signal processing methods: noise suppression, trend removal, power spectrum, partitioned into blocks/windows, time-frequency map, modelling, frequency estimation. ECG analysis: detection of R peaks and computation of heart-rate. EEG analysis: derivations/references, physiologic frequency bands and decomposition of these bands. EMG analysis: detection of bursts, power and frequency estimation, computation of envelope of an EMG signal.
Course Precondition
There are no prerequisites for the course.
Resources
There is no textbook that covers the topics of the course entirety. The course must be followed from the lecture and lecture notes.
Notes
No suggested additional course notes.
