Systems And Methods For Resolving The Continuous Wavelet Transform Of A Signal
First Claim
1. A method for processing a scalogram, the method comprising:
- receiving a signal from a signal generator;
using processing equipment for;
generating the scalogram based at least in part on a continuous wavelet transform of the signal,sampling the signal,convolving the samples of the signal with wavelet coefficients to produce skewed scalogram samples,deskewing the skewed scalogram samples to produce scalogram update samples,updating the scalogram by adding the scalogram update samples to the scalogram, anddetermining information from the signal based at least in part on the updated scalogram; and
outputting the information to an output device.

Abstract
According to an embodiment, techniques for estimating scalogram energy values in a wedge region of a scalogram are disclosed. A pulse oximetry system including a sensor or probe may be used to receive a photoplethysmograph (PPG) signal from a patient or subject. A scalogram, corresponding to the obtained PPG signal, may be determined. In an approach, energy values in the wedge region of the scalogram may be estimated by performing convolution-based or convolution-like operations on the obtained PPG signal, or a transformed version thereof, and the scalogram may be updated according to the estimated values. In an approach, a deskewing technique may be used to align data prior to adding the data to the scalogram. In an approach, one or more signal parameters may be determined based on the resolved and estimated values of the scalogram.
