ECG signal aggregates potentially precise information that could assist the clinicians in making more appropriate & timely decisions in lethal moments. Autonomous system with features of ECG characteristic extraction and heart rate measurement from such electrical response using powerful and advance methodologies are of ultimate interest. VLSI implementation of a portable Holter monitor design is presented in this work considering parallelism, distributed algorithm and re-configurable computing to allocate the DSP implementations. Lacks of bulk production opportunities have forced us to...
