QRS Detection Using FPGA Acceleration in Electrocardiograms
Abstract
The following paper presents a comparison of four methods for QRS detection in electrocardiograms with the help of a field programmable gate array (FPGA).The first method uses a hard-wired microprocessor and external DRAM, while the second, third, and fourth methods use custom IP blocks that are hand-written and automatically generated, respectively.The hardware description language is chosen to be Verilog, and the controlling firmware is written in C algorithmic language.
