In cardiac auscultation, the ability to clearly hear any existing murmur sounds in heart sounds is crucial for proper diagnosis. This work aims to improve heart sound by the use of a stethoscope array and beamforming technique. The stethoscope array comprises four piezo elements for measurement, placed on the edges of a 40mm by 40mm rectangle. The directionality of the piezo elements reduces the effect of ambient noise in the measurement. The signal amelioration is achieved by isolating the systole and diastole sounds, and independently applying the delay-and-sum beamforming. This thereby makes any existing murmur sounds in the systole and/or diastole more audible and clearer to aid diagnosis. Finally, the designed stethoscope array and signal processing shows a gain of up to 33% for measured healthy heart samples, and up to 63% increase in murmur sound gain for measured sample with medically confirmed murmur.
