Title
An Ultra-Low Power Subband-Based Electronic Stethoscope
Abstract
Electronic stethoscopes are able to offer signal amplification and other benefits over traditional stethoscopes. However, many electronic stethoscopes rely on a personal computer for their signal processing, which reduces portability and requires a relatively large amount of power. This paper presents a low power, portable electronic stethoscope system that is based on a signal processing approach using an over-sampled filterbank. This system is implemented on an ultra-low resource DSP system. The stethoscope incorporates multiple filtering modes as well as audio record and playback (full and half speed) functionality.
