ABSTRACT:
Efficient cancellation of AC power line interference from a signal received by electronic instruments, such as biomedical monitors, is obtained by efficiently estimating the magnitude and phase of the noise signal from the contaminated input signal in a digital signal processor. Each interfering noise component of known frequency is represented as a sinusoid composed of cosine and sine components having estimated amplitude parameters. These amplitude parameters are recalculated at discrete points in time in the digital signal processor to carry out substantially a Fourier integration on the input signal at the known frequency f.sub.0 of the interfering signal, with the integration being updated to the last sample. The integration can be carried out to allow the estimates to adapt to time varying amplitudes and/or phases of the interfering signals. Cancellation of the estimated noise sinusoid from the input signal results in an output signal substantially uncontaminated by the noise.
