Acquisition of Pulse Characteritics Based on Wavelet Module Maximum Principle / 航天医学与医学工程

ABSTRACT

Objective To study a wavelet method for acquiring the characters of pulse wave based on the principle of wavelet transform which can effectively solve the problem of inaccuracy of the conventional methods. Method The method of wavelet module maximum was used to divide the pulse wave according to periods and basically decomposed it, by arranging in time order and symbolizing the module maximum character points of pulse wave signal at the ascending and descending edges as well as the crest and trough. Result Through the method, the unobvious dicrotism, trail wave and the anomalistic wave appearing at the ascending and descending edge of the main wave, and multi-scale characters and all kinds of characters in time domain of pulse signal were further acquired more accurately. Conclusion Simplicity, quickness and accuracy are achieved by focusing on the character points of pulse signals. It provides a new means for further studies of classification and identification of pulse signals.
