The proposed work presents the principle of low
cost embedded system which gives essential ECG monitoring
system. For ECG signal in real time, embedded C is used for
programming the proposed system hardware. Embedded
system consists of 32bit ARM LPC2138, MAX232, Amplifier
circuit block, ECG electrodes. System gives essential real
time ECG signal values. ECG signal related parameters are
analyzed like wave’s amplitude, heart beats, blood pressure
and RR interval. It also gives normal and abnormal status of
ECG signal. Different algorithms like wavelet transform,
extended kalman filter, extended kalman smoother and
linear discriminant analysis classifier are used for filtering
and analysis of the ECG signal and its parameters
respectively. Wavelet Transform gives better Accuracy of
97.20% and Detection error ratio of 0.064, Positive
Prediction of 93.91% as compared with EKF and EKS.
System have advantages like low cost, better results in real
time, versatility.

The proposed embedded system design is used to detect
the normal and abnormal problems generated in ECG
signal measured in real time. System obtained is exact
ECG signal in real time on Visual basic and value comes
from the signal that is stored in drive on Personal
Computer. After that, ECG signal parameters are
correctly analyzed on MATLAB with the help of wavelet
transform with LDA classifier which gives better
performance than EKF and EKS algorithm. Wavelet
Transform gives better Accuracy of 97.20% and Detection
error ratio is 0.064, Positive Prediction 93.91% as
compared with EKF and EKS. From the results, we have concluded that the real time system gives good results as
MIT-BIH data. Proposed System is used for the home and
hospitals for heart patients. It is cost effective.
