APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING AN INDIVIDUAL USING ELECTROCARDIOGRAM

摘要

A method for authenticating a user using an electrocardiogram according to the present invention includes: a step of measuring an electrocardiogram signal from a user; a step of extracting at least one singularity from the measured electrocardiogram signal; a step of calculating a heart rate of the electrocardiogram signal using the at least one singularity, extracting the prestored electrocardiogram signal which coincides with the heart rate of the electrocardiogram and generating a corrected electrocardiogram signal by coinciding the at least one singularity of the electrocardiogram with the at least one singularity of the prestored electrocardiogram signal; and a step of authenticating the user by comparing the corrected electrocardiogram signal with the electrocardiogram signal of the prestored registered user.
