First, the adaptive filtering algorithm is employed to remove the additive artifacts from the signals. The ECG signals are then transformed by a CWT at a suitable scale. Finally, the QRS complex is detected in processed signals. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated on the MIT-BIH Noise Stress Test Database. The recordings in this dataset are specially selected and characterized by baseline wander, muscle artifacts, and electrode motion artifacts as noise sources. Obtained results show that the proposed method reached the most satisfactory performance compared with several other QRS complex detection algorithms. %D 2019 %L SisLab3864
