contents Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals can frequently be affected by the introduction of noise and artifacts. Since these types of signal corruptions disrupt the accurate interpretation of ECG signals, noise and artifacts must be eliminated during the preprocessing phase. In this paper, we introduced a comprehensive pre-processing phase that eliminates motion artifacts and noise prior to detecting and extracting entirely corrupted ECG signal segments. The first method, denoted as the WLNH method, is constructed using wavelet multiresolution analysis (MRA), the Lillifors test, NLM, and a high-pass filter. The second method entails substituting the wavelet MRA decomposition with the variational mode decomposition (VMD) while retaining all other stages from the first method. This technique is denoted as the VLWNH. The two proposed methods differ from some existing methods in that they first employ the Lilliefors test to identify whether a component is white Gaussian noise and then utilize the High Pass Filter to eliminate motion anomalies. The simulation results show that the offered solutions are effective, particularly when dealing with white Gaussian noise and base-line wander (BW) noise.
