  • Method and apparatus for detection signal processing
    Patent number: 6492821
    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for detecting the occurrence of an external event. The system eliminates the need for users to adjust amplifier offsets as well as detection thresholds by continually analyzing the signal and optimizing the offset and threshold values accordingly. Additionally, the system detects the external events in a noisy environment when the duration of the events vary by several orders of magnitude by employing cascaded difference filters.
