Synthetic ECG signal

Generation of simple synthetic ECG signals.

You are now following this Submission

Generate simple synthetic ECG signals for given time vectors, without baseline wander and assuming heart rate equal to 1 Hz, according to the mathematical model described in:
P. E. McSharry, G. D. Clifford, L. Tarassenko and L. A. Smith, "A dynamical model for generating synthetic electrocardiogram signals," IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, vol. 50, no. 3, pp. 289–294, 2003
This function also allows for obtaining the first derivative of the generated signal.
