  • Title: On detecting the presence of fetal R-wave using the moving averaged magnitude difference algorithm.
    Author: Park YC, Lee KY, Youn DH, Kim NH, Kim WK, Park SH.
    Journal: IEEE Trans Biomed Eng; 1992 Aug; 39(8):868-71. PubMed ID: 1506000.
    Abstract:
    An efficient algorithm detecting the presence of a fetal QRS complex is presented. The proposed fetal QRS detection method computes the averaged magnitude of the difference between the fetal ECG signal and the reference signal to detect the fetal QRS event. The detected fetal QRS complexes are exponentially averaged to generate the template signal which can track the slowly varying shape of the fetal ECG signal. As an effort to obtain improved detection performances, two approaches of normalizing the fetal ECG signal and the template are considered.
