Abstract

The display of biological signals in monitors often involves a multirate sampling operation which consists of decimation and intenolation. All electroencephalographic (EEG) samples of 10 to 30 seconds must be displayed in the computer screen to keep the aspect ratio of the paper polygraph output. Since the current affordable display technology plots at most 2,000 pixels per row, some samples need to be discarded. This paper studies methods to perform this operation characterizing them from the signal processing viewpoint and compares the display quality among several decimations. Experimental results show that a nonlinear operation such as the peak detection could be preferable than the canonical linear filtering to reduce aliasing.
