The R peak detection algorithm is a necessary tool for monitoring and diagnosing the cardiovascular disease. This paper presents the R peak detection algorithm based on continuous wavelet transform (CWT) and Shannon energy. We evaluate the proposed algorithm with the 48 record of ECG data from MIT-BIH arrhythmia database. Results show that the proposed algorithm gives very good DER (0.48%-0.50%) compared to those from previous publications (0.168%-0.87%). We demonstrated that the use of the CWT with a single scaling parameter is capable of removing noises. In addition, we found that Shannon energy cannot improve the DER value but it can highlight the R peak from the low QRS complex in ECG beat leading to the improvement in the robustness of the R peak detection algorithm.

A novel R-peak detection algorithm suitable for wearable electrocardiogram (ECG) devices is proposed with four objectives: robustness to noise, low latency processing, low resource complexity, and automatic tuning of parameters. The approach is a two-pronged algorithm comprising (1) triangle template matching to accentuate the slope information of the R-peaks and (2) a single moving average filter to define a dynamic threshold for peak detection. The proposed algorithm was validated on eight ECG public databases. The obtained results not only presented good accuracy, but also low resource complexity, all of which show great potential for detection R-peaks in ECG signals collected from wearable devices.
