Research on pulse power spectrum calculation method based on TCM

A new method of calculating human pulse spectrum is introduced, which is combined with the characteristics of Chinese medicine theory and human pulse. The method comprises 3 parts, typical cycle selection, resampling and normalized processing, and utilizing data captured from Cun, Guan and Chi position of radial artery on both hands. The calculation result of smooth pulse and taut pulse were analyzed based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) description, and compared with the power spectrum calculated by traditional method in order to prove the rationality. The conclusion of relationship between energy distribution and pulse characteristics was reached.
