8.4.1. R-Peak Detection Method
A function is used that:
- Applies preliminary filtering of the ECG signal
- Uses an adaptive threshold for peak detection
- Computes RR intervals:
RR(i) = time(R_peak(i+1)) – time(R_peak(i)) - Filters artifacts (extrasystoles, missed beats)
8.4.2. Pulse Visualization
The upper graph shows:
- Gray points: all detected pulses
- Blue points: valid RR intervals
- Red points: extrasystoles (marked for exclusion)
