An adaptive filtering method and apparatus for reducing the level of an undesired noise component in an acquired physiological signal having a desired signal component. The acquired physiological signal is applied to one input of the adaptive filter, and a synthetic reference signal that is modeled so as to exhibit a correlation with the desired signal component is applied to another input of the adaptive filter. Thereafter, in a feedback manner, the adaptive filter iteratively adjusts the modeled synthetic reference signal so as to progressively generate a more accurate approximation of the desired signal component in the adaptive filter, which approximation becomes a reconstruction of the acquired physiological signal wherein the level of the undesired noise component is reduced.
