Wave form of Crackle
• IDW or initial deflection width represents
the duration between the beginning of the
crackle and the first deflection.
• 2CD (two-cycle duration) is the duration
from the beginning of the crackle to the
date at which the waveform did two
complete cycles
• It is accepted that the duration of a crackle
is lower than 20 ms and the frequency
range is between 100 and 200 Hz
• Crackles are generated by small airways
snapping open on inspiration. Therefore,
they are predominantly inspiratory. The
difference between the course and
fine crackles is believed to come from the
size of the airway snapping open (larger
airways, deeper pitched, courser crackles)
Wave form of Wheeze
• A wheeze is a continuous, coarse, whistling
sound produced in the respiratory airways
during breathing.
• For wheezes to occur, some part of the
respiratory tree must be narrowed or
obstructed (for example narrowing of the
lower respiratory tract in an asthmatic
attack), or airflow velocity within the
respiratory tree must be heightened.
• Rhonchi are rattling, continuous and
low-pitched breath sounds that are
often hear to be like snoring.
• It is caused by thick secretions in large
airways as air passes by.
• Rhonchi can be heard in patients with
pneumonia, chronic bronchitis, cystic
fibrosis or COPD (chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease). Coughing will
often clear rhonchi.
• They are lower in pitch than wheezes
and have a snoring quality. They also
have a sinusoidal pattern on waveform,
but the number of deflections per unit
time is less than that of wheezes as they
are of lower frequency.

Lung sound Processing
Steps:-
1.) Receiving of Sound from different sources.
2.) Extraction of Noise and Conversion of sound into signals/message.
3.) Processing of sound in computer in line.
4.) Separated sound of lung and heart shown on computer display.
Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4
1.)Receiving of Sound from different sources
Heart sound wave
Lung sound wave
Noise sound wave
Received sound wave contain sound
from three sources:- Heart, lung and
Noise
20Hz to 150Hz
Noise
Microphone as
sound receiver
Main sources of Sound
25Hz to 1500Hz
2.)Extraction of Noise
The firs section of the step is to extract the lung sound from mixture of heart sound and lung sound :-
Microphone:- Receive
sound
Amplifier:- Amplifies
sound
Low pass filter
Computer in line
Set at cut-off of 2000Hz
Output message
Input message
Right chest sound
Left chest sound
3.)Processing of sound in computer In line
Computer Sound card Processing Algorithm
Output sound signals of right chest
and left chest when the noise sound
waves are filtered by the low pass filter
Graph of sounds produce by
heart and lung separately
Right chest sound
Left chest sound

ICA:- Independent component analysis technique
Let us consider two sources of signal form both lung X and X
Then X (t) = A S (t) + A S (t) (1)
X (t) = A S (t) + A S (t) (2)
Where a are correlation coefficients, the problem is to get the original signals out of the recorded ones, but separately. So we
need to identify original sources S and S using only the recorded mixed signals X and X . A more simplified writing of equations
(1) and (2) is;
X=A.S
Where X is Mixing matrix, and S is recorded signal matrix and S, is original sound source matrix.
S= WX
Where W is 1/A .
