Ultra Low-Power Biomedical Signal Processing: An Analog Wavelet Filter Approach for Pacemakers

by Wouter A. Serdijn and Sandro A.P. Haddad

Book Overview

Often WT systems employ the discrete wavelet transform, implemented on a digital signal processor. However, in ultra low-power applications such as biomedical implantable devices, it is not suitable to implement the WT by means of digital circuitry due to the relatively high power consumption associated with the required A/D converter. Low-power analog realization of the wavelet transform enables its application in vivo, e.g. in pacemakers, where...
