ABSTRACT:
This project presents a approach for arrhythmia detection in electrocardiogram (ECG)
signals using a Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) implementation with Verilog
Hardware Description Language (HDL). The proposed system focuses on the
identification of Ventricular Fibrillation/Ventricular Tachycardia to enhance the
accuracy and real-time processing capabilities of traditional ECG monitoring systems.
The FPGA-based arrhythmia detection system leverages parallel processing and
hardware acceleration to achieve low-latency, high-throughput analysis of ECG
signals. The Verilog HDL is employed for efficient hardware design, enabling the
implementation of complex algorithms for signal processing and feature extraction. The
system incorporates a comprehensive set of signal processing techniques, including
filtering, feature extraction, and classification algorithms, to discern Ventricular
Fibrillation/Ventricular Tachycardia from abnormal heartbeats.
The design utilizes a scalable and modular architecture, allowing for easy customization
and adaptation to different arrhythmia detection scenarios. The FPGA implementation
enhances the computational efficiency of the system, making it well-suited for real-
time applications such as continuous ECG monitoring in clinical settings. The proposed
solution not only offers accurate detection of arrhythmia but also ensures rapid response
times critical for timely medical intervention.
Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the FPGA-based arrhythmia
detection system in accurately identifying Ventricular Fibrillation/Ventricular
Tachycardia. The system exhibits promising performance metrics, including
sensitivity, specificity, and overall accuracy, highlighting its potential as a robust and
efficient solution for real-time arrhythmia detection in clinical environments. The
proposed FPGA-based approach contributes to the advancement of ECG monitoring
systems by providing a hardware-accelerated solution that combines accuracy, speed,
and adaptability.
