Abstract
In this paper, R-wave detection algorithm using refractory period to reflect the depolarization and repolarization of the myocardial cells of the heart is proposed. The proposed algorithm detects R-peaks using the features of R-wave and variable refractory period. First, the proposed algorithm extracts candidate R-peaks that have a relatively high potential and calculates the refractory period based on the kurtosis and potential for candidate R-peaks. Next, R-peak is determined by morphological features of the R-wave within the refractory period. In addition, due to less computation in the proposed algorithm, real-time processing is possible. The algorithm is applied to all records of the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database and the obtained results show a competitive detection rate of over 99.7%.
