Abstract:
:To analyze signals measured from human blood flow in the time-frequency domain, we used the wavelet transform which gives good time resolution for high-frequency components and good frequency resolution for low-frequency components. Five characteristic frequency peaks, corresponding to five almost periodic rhythmic activities, were found on the time scale of minutes. These oscillations were characterized by time and spatial invariant measures. The potential of this approach in studying the blood-flow dynamics was illustrated by revealing differences between the groups of control subjects and athletes.
