Correlation between mother wavelet and ECG signal

8 views (last 30 days)
Hi all,
I am doing wavelet denoising for my ECG signal. In order to choose best mother wavelet for my signal, i have to correlate it first with my input signal.
How can i correlate a mother wavelet and ECG signal in Matlab? I can correlate two ECG signals, but not a mother wavelet and a ECG signal.
This due to the fact that i cannot get mother wavelet in an array. All i get is "db4" or "db8" as a character. How can i get a mother wavelet into an array and correlate with my signal?

Hi Mr.Phani,
Thank you for your time in answering my question.
Now i am able to get Morlet wavelet in matlab. But, wavelet of interest to me is Db4,5,6 . I cannot get these wavelets since there are no builtin functions just like for Morlet wavelet.

use wavefun in matlab.we will get both wavelet and scaling function.Then change the size of the wavelet function to match with the signal and then find out correlation

The results for wavelet denoising should not be that heavily dependent on the choice of wavelet.
For EEG data, I would recommend starting with one of Daubechies' least asymmetric wavelets with at least 4 vanishing moments, 'sym4' for example.

For time-frequency analysis, Can I use symlets wavelet family in CWT?
I mean if I use the in-built function of MatLab 'cwt' to find CWT coefficient of a signal as follows:
cfs=cwt(y,scales,'sym4','plot');
cfs=abs(cfs);
Is it valid to use symlet wavelet here for CWT? In earlier version of MatLab this was there.
