1. Introduction

   Analysis of the heart rhythm makes it possible to evaluate not only the state of the cardiovascular
system, but also the state of the adaptive capacity of the whole human body. Most modern systems for
automated cardiac rhythm analysis are based on statistical analysis of rhythmocardio signal, which is
an ordered set of durations of R-R intervals in a registered electrocardiogram [1-8]. However, this
approach is uninformative, because the R-R intervals reflect only the change in the duration of the
cardiac cycles and not the totality of the time intervals between single-phase values of the
electrocardio signal for all its phases.
   In [9, 10], a new approach to the analysis of cardiac rhythm on the basis of high resolution
rhythmocardio signal was developed. As noted in these works, the classical rhythmocardio signal is
embedded in the high resolution rhythmocardio signal, which is the basis for increasing the level of
informativeness of the analysis of cardiac rhythm in modern computer systems of functional
diagnostics of the human heart state.
   In [9, 10], it is justified to use a vector of random variables as a mathematical model of high
resolution rhythmocardio signal. But, this model is a relatively bad mathematical model of high
resolution rhythmocardio signal, since it does not allow to study its temporal dynamics. To take into
account the temporal dynamics of the high resolution rhythmocardio signal, it is necessary to use a
mathematical apparatus of the theory of random sequences, namely, to consider it as a vector of
random sequences.

form of a vector of stationary and stationary related random sequences. Let's write down the structure
of probabilistic characteristics of this model for the analysis of cardiac rhythm in modern cardiac
diagnostics systems.
   Based on this model, we develop methods for statistical analysis of the rhythmocardiosignal with
increased resolution in the framework of the spectral correlation theory of random processes

index l indicates the reference number of the electrocardio signal within its cycle. The number L of
intervals per cycle of the electrocardio signal determines the resolution of the rhythmocardio signal
and sets the number of phases in the cycle of the electrocardio signal that can be separated by methods
of segmentation and detection in solving the problem of automatic formation of the rhythm cardio
signal from the electrocardio signal.

independent values, that is, white noises given on the set of integers, is a known model of high
resolution rhythmocardio signal in the form of a vector of random variables, which was developed in
[9, 10]. But in practice, the hypothesis of the independence or non-correlation of the time intervals
between single-phase values of the electrocardio signal is not true, requiring a stochastic dependence
between the rhytocardiogram intervals with higher resolution, and hence the use of a more complex

3. Conclusions

    The mathematical model of high resolution rhythmocardio signal in the form of a vector of
stationary and stationary related random sequences is substantiated. The structure of probabilistic
characteristics of this model for analysis of cardiac rhythm in modern cardiodiagnostic systems is
investigated. Unlike the existing model of high resolution rhythmocardio signal in the form of a
vector of random variables, new model take into account the temporal dynamics of the high resolution
rhythmocardio signal, which is the basis for increasing the level of informativeness of the analysis of
cardiac rhythm in modern computer systems of functional diagnostics. Based on a new mathematical
model of a rhythmocardiosignal with increased resolution, a statistical estimation of its probabilistic
characteristics is carried out within the framework of the spectral correlation theory of random
processes.
    In the future scientific researches it is planned to justify the choice of the minimum number of
diagnostic features necessary for carrying out the diagnosis in the analysis of heart rhythm on the
basis of the obtained statistical estimates.
