Abstract

This paper addresses the ability of Burg algorithm to predict the ECG signal when it was completely destroyed by motion artefacts. The application focus of this study is portable devices used in telemedicine and healthcare, where the daily activity of patients produces several contact losses and movements of electrodes on the skin. The paper starts with a short analysis of noise sources that affects the ECG signal, followed by the algorithm implementation and the results. The obtained results show that Burg algorithm is a very promising technique to predict the ECG signal for at least three sequential heart beats.
