In this paper, we describe a QRS complex detector based on the dyadic wavelet transform (Dy WT) which is robust to time-varying QRS complex morphology and to noise. We design a spline wavelet that is suitable for QRS detection. The scales of this wavelet are chosen based on the spectral characteristics of the electrocardiogram (ECG) signal. We illustrate the performance of the Dy WT-based QRS detector by considering problematic ECG signals from the American Heart Association (AHA) data base. Seventy hours of data was considered. We also compare the performance of Dy WT-based QRS detector with detectors based on Okada, Hamilton-Tompkins, and multiplication of the backward difference algorithms. From the comparison, results we observed that although no one algorithm exhibited superior performance in all situations, the Dy WT-based detector compared well with the standard techniques. For multiform premature ventricular contractions, bigeminy, and couplets tapes, the Dy WT-based detector exhibited excellent performance.
