Independent component analysis for fetal heart rate detection using photosplethysmography

Photoplethysmography (PPG) is an optoelectronic technique for measuring and recording changes in the volume of body parts. These changes are associated with each heart beat and acquired by pulse oximetry. Fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring using PPG is a challenging task since the acquired signal...
