Abstract: An Electro cardiogram is commonly used in biomedical signal processing. It is used to monitor minor electrical changes in the human body. The electrical changes originate due to the function of heart. The anomalies of heart are found by ECG. In this work the Whale optimization algorithm is used to de-noising the ECG signal. The Whale optimization algorithm is used with Adaptive filter which filter the corrupted ECG signal. The performance of the ANC will be improved by calculating the optimum weight value. The WOA technique gives the best result on the different fidelity parameter compare to PSO, MPSO and ABC. The WOA technique gives the significant improvement in accuracy. It gives a good SNR, MSE, ME result compare to PSO, MPSO and ABC. The WOA gives 80% improvement in SNR 88% in MSE and 89% in ME as compared to PSO. So, by using WOA we get a desired ECG component. The WOA reduces the noise in ECG signal and improves the quality of signal.
