Abstract

In a method and apparatus for physiological signal processing, a number of measured physiological signals are obtained in vivo from a subject and at least one of these measured physiological signals is supplied to the input of each first signal processing unit in a group of first signal processing units. Within each signal processing unit, the physiological measurement signal (or signals) supplied thereto is/are subjected to at least one transfer function so as to produce a pre-treated signal at the output of that first signal processing unit. The pre-treated signals from all of the first signal processing units are combined in a second signal processing unit so as to produce at least one synthesized ECG signal.
