Abstract
The ECGs transmission problem becomes actual nowadays due to the tremendous progress in communications. One of the major aspects of the transmission is the source coding (compression). The wavelet theory becomes a tool frequently used in compression. The aim of this paper is a very fast compression algorithm based on wavelets. Some simulation results prove the performance of the proposed algorithm.
