Assignment 1.1a Solution

This document summarizes the analysis of two photoplethysmography (PPG) signals. PPG2 has a higher mean square and variance than PPG1, indicating it has more noise. The spectrum of PPG1 shows it has less high frequency noise. Due to the large noise in PPG2, its probability density function (PDF) resembles a normal distribution, while PPG1's PDF retains the signal's shape. Therefore, PPG1 has better quality than PPG2.

ii.(a)

ii.(b)
PPG1:

mean:0.0731
mean square: 1.4765
variance: 1.4811

PPG2:
mean:0.0731
mean square: 3.7448
variance: 3.7483

ii.(c)
ii.(d)

PDF should have the rough shape of the histogram

ii.(e)
ii.(f)
ppg2 has a higher mean square and variance. From the spectrum of ppg1 and ppg2, it is clear that
ppg1 has lower noise in high frequency. Due to the large noise in ppg2, the PDF shape is more
like a normal distribution (white noise). Thus, the ppg1 quality is better.
