Abstract
In this paper, a transform based methodology is presented for compression of electrocardiogram (ECG) signal. The methodology employs different transforms such as Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT). A comparative study of performance of different transforms for ECG signal is made in terms of Compression ratio (CR), Percent root mean square difference (PRD), Mean square error (MSE), Maximum error (ME) and Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The simulation results included illustrate the effectiveness of these transforms in biomedical signal processing. When compared, Discrete Cosine Transform and Fast Fourier Transform give better compression ratio, while Discrete Wavelet Transform yields good fidelity parameters with comparable compression ratio.
