ElectroCardiogram(ECG) is used to measure and diagnose electrical activity of heart. R peak detection from ECG signal is our main concern. It is the basic mark for the identification of different arrhythmias. In this paper, R wave extraction is performed by using Wavelet Transform. The wavelet transform has risen over late years as an effective time– frequency analysis and it is efficiently analyze complex non stationary signals. In this research, R wave is extracted accurately then heart beat is analyzed by the detection of RR intervals. R wave extraction is performed and implemented in the most familiar multipurpose tool, MATLAB .In this research,99.9% accurate R peak is detected by this type of approach. By accurate detection of R peak, cardiac diseases can easily be identified such as Sinus tachycardia, Sinus bradycardia, Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), Atrial fibrillation (AF), Ventricular tachycardia and Heart block.
