The acquired data is subjected to signal processing techniques such as removal of power line frequencies and high frequency component removal using wavelet-denoising technique. The signal from the ECG preamplifier is acquired through the Codec input of the DSP starter kit. The algorithm is implemented in DSP (TI TMS320C67x) based starter kit (DSK) with a two-electrode ECG preamplifier. This work describes the implementation of wavelet-based de noising algorithm on electrocardiogram (ECG) signal and detection of important parameter such as heart rate, amplitude, timings of the ECG, etc. The algorithm shows that the Shannon energy (SE) sensitivity is equal to 99.924%, the detection error rate (DER) is equal to 0.155%, Positive Predictivity (+P) is equal to 99.922%, and Classification Accuracy (Acc) is equal to 99.846%. Of all 12 standard leads, ECG signals include 840 leads of the PTB Diagnostic ECG Database (PTBDB). The efficiency of the algorithm is tested on 70 cases.

At first, this algorithm computes the Shannon energy (SE) and then makes an envelope of Shannon energy (SE) by using the defined threshold. In this article, a method on Shannon energy (SE) in order to detect QRS complex in 12 leads of ECG signal is provided.

The analysis method of complex QRS in ECG signals for diagnosis of heart disease is extremely important. PTB is provided for research and teaching purposes by National Metrology Institute of Germany. Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) database is electrocardiograms (ECGs) set from healthy volunteers and patients with different heart diseases.
