Respiration analysis of the sternal Ballistocardiograph signal

In this research a new approach for processing of ballistocardiograph (BCG) signal is proposed in which, the respiration information is utilized to improve the averaging of the BCG signal. This method is based on our analysis that BCG cycles corresponding to the inspiration and expiration phases of...

Zusammenfassung:In this research a new approach for processing of ballistocardiograph (BCG) signal is proposed in which, the respiration information is utilized to improve the averaging of the BCG signal. This method is based on our analysis that BCG cycles corresponding to the inspiration and expiration phases of respiration cycle are different in morphology. The new BCG average calculated based on this methodology is then considered as the template of the BCG signal for further processing and can be considered as the output of a clinical BCG instrument.
