Objective:
This course helps in explaining the basic fundamentals of biosignals based on its acquisition,
processing, data reduction and noise removal techniques. This course also emphasizes on
various biomedical applications like neurological, cardiological and Magnetic Resonance
spectroscopy signal processing techniques.
Methodology:
Module I gives a brief introduction on characteristics and acquisition of various biosignals.
Whereas in Module II explains the artifacts caused in biosignals due to instruments. This
chapter explains the properties and effects of noises, the correlation process illustrated by
different case studies. Based on these concepts the signals can be reduced and compressed
with various algorithms as in Module III. In this module, ECG detection and EEG analysis has
also been summarized as an application of biomedical signal processing. Module IV
concentrates on adaptive noise cancellation technique with various algorithms and explains
the need of this technique in ECG monitoring. As an application study Module V adheres on
Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy which explains the signal processing using quantum
mechanical concept. Modeling core of any signal and system processing and analysis is
described in Module VI.
