Abstract:
Based on the study of ECG signal features, a new lossless ECG compression algorithm is put forward here. We apply second-order difference operation with anti- electromagnetic interference to original ECG signals and then, compress the result by the escape-based coding model. In spite of serious 50Hz-interference, the algorithm is still capable of obtaining a high compression ratio.
