In this example, we shall simulate the shapes of the electrocardiogram for both
The following commands create an electrocardiogram
signal heart might produce assuming a 4000 Hz sampling rate.
The heart rate for this signal is approximately 89 beats per minute, and the
peak voltage of the signal is 3.5 millivolts.
x1 = 3.5*ecg(2700).';
y1 = sgolayfilt(kron(ones(1,13),x1),0,21);
n = 1:30000;
del = round(2700*rand(1));
mhb = y1(n + del);
t = 0.00025:0.00025:7.5;
plot(t,mhb);
