Abstract: In some embodiments, there are provided systems, devices, components, and corresponding methods configured to permit navigation and/or positioning of an intra-cardiac electrophysiological (EP) mapping basket or other EP mapping structure of an EP mapping catheter inside or near an atrium or other heart chamber of a patient's heart using biosignals or intra-cardiac signals. In one embodiment, QRS complexes are extracted or isolated from intra-cardiac signals sensed by electrodes mounted on the EP mapping basket. Using the QRS complexes and a statistical shape or other model of the EP mapping basket or other type of EP mapping structure, one or more computing devices then determine the locations of the electrodes inside or near the patient's atrium that are associated with each isolated or extracted QRS complex, and thereby permit accurate navigation within the heart and/or processing of data acquired using the EP mapping basket or other EP mapping structure.

Using the QRS complexes, one or more computing devices then determine the locations of the electrodes inside or near the patient's atrium that are associated with each isolated or extracted QRS complex. The one or more computing devices can also be used to determine changes in the three-dimensional locations and orientations of the basket and the electrodes thereof as the basket is moved around, in, or near the patient's atrium, heart chamber, or other portion of the patient's heart.
