Abstract
There is provided a heartbeat detection device. The heartbeat detection device includes a time difference value calculation unit () configured to calculate a time difference value of sampling data of an electrocardiographic waveform, FIFO buffers (--) configured to receive the time difference value, a FIFO buffer (-) configured to receive an output from the FIFO buffer (-), a FIFO buffer (-) configured to receive an output from the FIFO buffer (-), a minimum value detection unit () configured to detect, for each sampling time, a minimum value M out of the time difference value stored in the FIFO buffer (-) and the time difference value stored in the FIFO buffer (-), and a heartbeat time determination unit () configured to set, when a difference value M−a between the minimum value M and an output value a of the FIFO buffer (-) is equal to or greater than a threshold, sampling time of the output value a as heartbeat time.
