Abstract :
This paper is associated with the choice of wavelet bases in electrocardiogram compression. The integer-to-integer wavelet transform in the algorithm, the zero-tree coding and the adaptive arithmetic coding in electrocardiogram is used. The wavelet library is composed of nine wavelets. The MIT-BIH arrhythmia database is used to test the algorithm. The experiment results show that it can significantly reduce the signal distortion by selecting optimal wavelet bases for each segment electrocardiogram in compression algorithm.
