Title:
METHOD AND ARRANGEMENT FOR DETECTING AND MEASURING THE PHASE OF PERIODICAL BIOSIGNALS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004047610
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method and an arrangement for detecting and measuring the phase of periodical biosignals. The aim of the invention is to detect and measure a causal phase response in periodical biosignals, with improved reliability and higher speed compared to conventional methods, simultaneously reducing the computing power required. According to the invention, a state observer is set up in parallel with the analysed biological system. The output variables of the biological system and the observer are evaluated in order to minimise the occurring error. The determined phase of a periodical biosignal can, for example, be used for functional diagnostic purposes.
