function [QRS_wave]=QRSpulse(qrswidth,bpm,fs,amp)
%QRSpulse(qrswidth,bpm,fs,amp) artifical QRS pulse generator
%   [QRS_wave]=QRSPULSE(fs,bpm,amp,qrswidth) returns a waveform vector.
%   fs is the sample frequency, 100 to 500 Hz typical.
%   bpm is the number of beats per minute.
%   amp is the amplitude of the QRS in micro volts, 500 to 5000 uV.
%   qrswidth in seconds, the time period between QRS.
