Analysis of the Electrocardiogram ECG signals is the pre-requisite for the clinical diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases. ECG signal is degraded by artifacts such as baseline drift and noises which appear during the acquisition phase. The effect of impulse and Gaussian noises is randomly distributed whereas baseline drift generally affects the baseline of the ECG signal; these artifacts induce interference in the diagnosis of cardio diseases. The influence of these artifacts on the ECG signals needs to be removed by suitable ECG signal processing scheme. This paper proposes combination of non linear morphological operators for the noise and baseline drift removal. Non flat structuring elements of varying dimensions are employed with morphological filtering to achieve low distortion as well as good noise removal. Simulation outcomes illustrate noteworthy improvement in baseline drift yielding lower values of MSE and PRD; on the other hand high signal to noise ratios depicts suppression of impulse and Gaussian noises. |
