Relating the spectrum of cardiac signals to the spatiotemporal dynamics of cardiac sources [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 An increasing number of studies use the spectrum of cardiac signals for analyzing the spatiotemporal dynamics of complex cardiac arrhythmias. However, the relationship between the spectrum of cardiac signals and the spatiotemporal dynamics of the underlying cardiac sources remains to date unclear.
