    Abstract

    The cardiosynchronous signal obtained through Radio Frequency Impedance Interrogation (RFII) is a non-invasive method for monitoring hemodynamics with potential applications in combat triage and biometric identification. The RFII signal is periodic in nature dominated by the heart beat cycle. The first step in both of these applications is to segment the signal by identifying a fiducial point in each heart beat cycle. A continuous wavelet transform was utilized to locate the fiducial points with high temporal resolution. Cepstral Analysis was used to estimate the average heart rate to focus on the appropriate portion of the time-frequency spectrum. Robust heartbeats from RFII signals collected from four subjects were segmented using this method.
