Physiological electric signal entropy analysis method based on de-trending terms

The invention discloses physiological electric signal entropy analysis method based on de-trending terms. The method can determine trend term components corresponding to different frequencies according to a one-to-one numerical relationship between cut-off frequencies and characteristic value parameters of trend terms, which is an advantage that wavelet analysis and ensemble empirical mode decomposition methods do not have. Secondly, trend terms of different components are superposed on the HRV signals under the circadian rhythm of a healthy person in the standard database to enable the HRV signals to present a single or mixed trend to a certain extent, then he trend terms of the HRV signals are eliminated by using a smooth prior method, and finally entropy values under different trends before and after detrending are respectively calculated by using approximate entropy and fuzzy entropy. The two entropy analysis methods can identify two groups of samples under different trend interferences, so that the two entropies have the advantage of trend or noise existing in processing signals, and another important way is opened up for nonlinear signal processing and characteristic value selection.

Modulation noise estimation mechanism

An on-chip reduced complexity modulation noise estimation mechanism for performing nonlinear signal processing to analyze modulation noise to determine whether a semiconductor device under test complies with the performance criteria set by specifications or a standard corresponding thereto. When used in a two-point transmitter modulation architecture, the mechanism relies on the fact that the noise statistics at the output of the transmitter can be determined by observing the phase error output of the phase detector within the phase locked loop. In the digital embodiment of the mechanism, the phase error signal is compared to a configurable threshold value to generate an exception event. If the number of exception events exceeds a configurable max_fail value after comparisons of a configurable number of phase error samples, the test fails. A pass / fail signal is output reflecting the result of the test. The test comprises a configurable number of test samples to permit flexibility in the tradeoff between the time required to complete the test versus the statistical reliability of the test result, i.e. the probability of it correctly determining whether the tested device complies with target specifications.
