How do I calculate an exponentially weighted moving mean?

10 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi, I am using MATLAB R2020a with MacOS. I am trying to find the exponentially weighted moving mean of the cycle period of an ECG signal, and have used the dsp.MovingAverage function from the DSP signal processing toolbox, and called the commands shown. However, I am not sure how to specify how many of the elements of the vector to include in the weighted mean.
movavgexp = dsp.MovingAverage(10, 'Method', 'Exponential weighting', 'ForgettingFactor', 0.1);
Adding the 'WindowLength' command causes the following warning:
Warning: The WindowLength property is not relevant in this configuration of the System
object.
I would really appreciate any suggestions for this, thanks in advance!

"At the moment, is it just adding a weight to all of the elements and then finding the moving mean? "
From the documentation,
> As the age of the data increases, the magnitude of the weighting factor decreases exponentially and never reaches zero. In other words, the recent data has more influence on the current average than the older data.
Here's a detailed explanation of each method:
" how to specify how many of the elements of the vector to include in the weighted mean"
That's the first input movAvg = dsp.MovingAverage(Len)

Hi, thank you for this suggestion. I had tried this before but it gave the following warning:
Warning: The WindowLength property is not relevant in this configuration of the System
object.
Does this mean that I can still use it or will it not only apply the weights to the number of elements that I want it to?
