In a telemedicine system, a patient is geographically removed from the presence of a doctor or other healthcare provider. For example, the patient could be at home instead of on site at a healthcare facility. Telemedical devices enable the healthcare provider to monitor the health status of a patient and potentially diagnose and treat some medical problems without the need for the patient to travel to the healthcare facility. The use of telemedical systems has the potential to reduce the cost of healthcare, and to improve the quality of healthcare through increased patient monitoring. Various known telemedicine systems provide a device to a patient that enables the patient to transmit medical data to a doctor or healthcare provider. Some devices are configured to record biosignals, such as heart rate, blood pressure, and respiration rates, and transmit data of the recorded biosignals to a database for later review. 1, record 1, English, - biosignal

Étant donné que les sons doivent être numérisés, l'échantillonnage est un procédé d’enregistrement particulier. Par exemple, lorsque des sons sont enregistrés à l'aide d’un micro, le signal acoustique est transformé en oscillations électriques.

Il faut garder un certain nombre de choses à l'esprit pendant l'analyse d’un spectrogramme : le fait qu'on réduit à deux dimensions un «objet» qui en possède trois; l'existence d’une relation d’incertitude entre temps et fréquence; la plupart des mesures sont réalisées à l'aide d’un sonagraphe(aussi appelé spectrographe acoustique). Un sonagraphe est essentiellement un filtre passe-bande : le choix de la fréquence de filtrage joue un rôle fondamental(en général, on effectue plusieurs échantillonnages, typiquement à 10, 45, 150 et 300 Hz). 1, record 14, French, - sonagraphe
