An application of the wavelet transform to electrocardiography is described in the paper. The transform is used as a first stage of a lossy compression algorithm for efficient coding of rest ECG signals. The proposed technique is based on the decomposition of the ECG signal into a set of basic functions covering the time-frequency domain. Thus, nonstationary character of ECG data is considered. Some of the time-frequency signal components are removed because of their low influence to signal characteristics. Resulted components are efficiently coded by quantization, composition into a sequence of coefficients and compression by a run-length coder and a entropic Huffman coder. The proposed wavelet-based compression algorithm can compress data to average code length about 1 bit.sample-1. The algorithm can be also implemented to a real-time processing system when wavelet transform is computed by fast linear filters described in the paper.
