Abstract: The main aim of this paper is to detect the Fetal heart rate. Fetal heart rate monitoring technique is important for obtaining the important information about the condition of the Fetal during pregnancy. This is obtained from the Fetal ECG Signal which is extracted from the composite Abdominal ECG. The reason for the interest in FECG signal analysis is in clinical diagnosis and biomedical applications. The extraction and detection of FECG signal from abdominal signals using powerful and advanced methods find wide applications in the field of biomedical. Here the primary noises are removed using various filtering techniques. Separation of FECG from Composite abdominal ECG signal is done using Least Mean Square (LMS) Adaptive Filtering technique and finally Fetal heart rate is detected.
