TBMT01 Biomedical Signal Processing, ECTS-points
/ANALYS AV BIOELEKTRISKA SIGNALER/

Advancement level:
C

Aim:
The course gives an in-depth analysis of the origin and processing of physiological signals. In particular, electrophysiological signals generated by the heart as well as the central and peripheral nervous system are studied. Various models for analysis of these signals are presented and discussed. The course also comprise different methods for digital signal processing.
