%% function [qrs_amp_raw,qrs_i_raw,delay]=pan_tompkin(ecg,fs)
% Complete implementation of Pan-Tompkins algorithm
%完成PT算法的实现
%% Inputs
% ecg : raw ecg vector signal 1d signal
% fs : sampling frequency e.g. 200Hz, 400Hz and etc
% gr : flag to plot or not plot (set it 1 to have a plot or set it zero not
% to see any plots
%ecg:原始心电图向量
%fs:采样频率如200Hz、400Hz等
%gr:标记绘图与否(设置为1绘图,设置为0不查看任何绘图)
%% Outputs
% qrs_amp_raw : amplitude of R waves amplitudes
% qrs_i_raw : index of R waves
% delay : number of samples which the signal is delayed due to the
% filtering
% qrs_amp_raw :R波幅度
% qrs_i_raw : R波位置
% delay :由于滤波而使信号延迟的样本数
%% Method :
%% PreProcessing
% 1) Signal is preprocessed , if the sampling frequency is higher then it is downsampled
% and if it is lower upsampled to make the sampling frequency 200 Hz
% with the same filtering setups introduced in Pan
% tompkins paper (a combination of low pass and high pass filter 5-15 Hz)
% to get rid of the baseline wander and muscle noise.
%信号预处理,如果采样频率较高,则向下采样,如果采样频率较低,则向上采样,使采样频率为200Hz,与PT算法论文中介绍的滤波设置相同(低通和高通滤波器的组合,5-15Hz),以消除基线漂移和肌电干扰
% 2) The filtered signal is derivated using a derivating filter to high light the QRS complex.
%滤波后信号由一个导数滤波器导出,用以高亮QRS波(微分)
% 3) Signal is squared.
%信号平方
% 4)Signal is averaged with a moving window to get rid of noise (0.150 seconds length).
%信号与一个移动窗口进行平均,以消除噪声(0.15秒的长度)
% 5) depending on the sampling frequency of your signal the filtering
%options are changed to best match the characteristics of your ecg signal
%根据信号的采样频率,滤波选项更改为和心电信号最佳匹配的特征
% 6) Unlike the other implementations in this implementation the desicion
% rule of the Pan tompkins is implemented completely.
%% Decision Rule
% At this point in the algorithm, the preceding stages have produced a roughly pulse-shaped
% waveform at the output of the MWI . The determination as to whether this pulse
% corresponds to a QRS complex (as opposed to a high-sloped T-wave or a noise artefact) is
% performed with an adaptive thresholding operation and other decision
% rules outlined below;
% a) FIDUCIAL MARK - The waveform is first processed to produce a set of weighted unit
% samples at the location of the MWI maxima. This is done in order to localize the QRS
% complex to a single instant of time. The w[k] weighting is the maxima value.
% b) THRESHOLDING - When analyzing the amplitude of the MWI output, the algorithm uses
% two threshold values (THR_SIG and THR_NOISE, appropriately initialized during a brief
% 2 second training phase) that continuously adapt to changing ECG signal quality. The
% first pass through y[n] uses these thresholds to classify the each non-zero sample
% (CURRENTPEAK) as either signal or noise:
% If CURRENTPEAK > THR_SIG, that location is identified as a QRS complex
% candidate?and the signal level (SIG_LEV) is updated:
% SIG _ LEV = 0.125 CURRENTPEAK + 0.875?SIG _ LEV
% If THR_NOISE < CURRENTPEAK < THR_SIG, then that location is identified as a
% Noise peak?and the noise level (NOISE_LEV) is updated:
% NOISE _ LEV = 0.125CURRENTPEAK + 0.875?NOISE _ LEV
% Based on new estimates of the signal and noise levels (SIG_LEV and NOISE_LEV,
% respectively) at that point in the ECG, the thresholds are adjusted as follows:
% THR _ SIG = NOISE _ LEV + 0.25 ?(SIG _ LEV-NOISE _ LEV )
% THR _ NOISE = 0.5?(THR _ SIG)
% These adjustments lower the threshold gradually in signal segments that are deemed to
% be of poorer quality.
% c) SEARCHBACK FOR MISSED QRS COMPLEXES - In the thresholding step above, if
% CURRENTPEAK < THR_SIG, the peak is deemed not to have resulted from a QRS
% complex. If however, an unreasonably long period has expired without an abovethreshold
% peak, the algorithm will assume a QRS has been missed and perform a
% searchback. This limits the number of false negatives. The minimum time used to trigger
% a searchback is 1.66 times the current R peak to R peak time period (called the RR
% interval). This value has a physiological origin - the time value between adjacent
% heartbeats cannot change more quickly than this. The missed QRS complex is assumed
% to occur at the location of the highest peak in the interval that lies between THR_SIG and
% THR_NOISE. In this algorithm, two average RR intervals are stored,the first RR interval is
% calculated as an average of the last eight QRS locations in order to adapt to changing heart
% rate and the second RR interval mean is the mean
% of the most regular RR intervals . The threshold is lowered if the heart rate is not regular
% to improve detection.
% d) ELIMINATION OF MULTIPLE DETECTIONS WITHIN REFRACTORY PERIOD - It is
% impossible for a legitimate QRS complex to occur if it lies within 200ms after a previously
% detected one. This constraint is a physiological one ?due to the refractory period during
% which ventricular depolarization cannot occur despite a stimulus[1]. As QRS complex
% candidates are generated, the algorithm eliminates such physically impossible events,
% thereby reducing false positives.
% e) T WAVE DISCRIMINATION - Finally, if a QRS candidate occurs after the 200ms
% refractory period but within 360ms of the previous QRS, the algorithm determines
% whether this is a genuine QRS complex of the next heartbeat or an abnormally prominent
% T wave. This decision is based on the mean slope of the waveform at that position. A slope of
% less than one half that of the previous QRS complex is consistent with the slower
% changing behaviour of a T wave ?otherwise, it becomes a QRS detection.
% Extra concept : beside the points mentioned in the paper, this code also
% checks if the occured peak which is less than 360 msec latency has also a
% latency less than 0,5*mean_RR if yes this is counted as noise
% f) In the final stage , the output of R waves detected in smoothed signal is analyzed and double
% checked with the help of the output of the bandpass signal to improve
% detection and find the original index of the real R waves on the raw ecg
% signal
