Digital low-pass filtering and differentiation (LPD) are useful in real-time processing of many biomedical signals. A general method is presented for determining the coefficients of a differentiator that maximizes the signal-to-noise ratio or minimizes the error between actual and ideal LPD filters, when signal and noise spectra are known. Several examples of digital filters suitable for QRS complex and P-T wave processing in ECG are presented.
