Abstract

A procedure of frequency domain analysis of Ventricular Late Potentials (VLP's) is proposed and tested on simulated signals and real recordings of high-resolution vectorcardiogram (VCG). The analysis is focused on the ending part of the QRS complex and on the ST segment of the averaged VCG. Firstly a Tchebytcheff polynomial interpolation is used in order to eliminate the QRS low frequency influence, and then the 'filtered' signal is analyzed by means of a time-variant autoregressive model that allows to evaluate a power spectral density (PSD) in correspondence of each sample and thus to track, in the frequency domain, the dynamical modification of the signal. A joint time-frequency representation is obtained that qualitatively enhances the differences between patients with and without VLP's. In addition some indices are introduced in order to give a quantitative description of the phenomenon.
