Quantification of EMG Signal for Foot Flexion using Frequency Domain Anaysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
There are several methods available for EMG(Electromyography) based user intent detection, wherein muscle activation has been recognized by different approaches.Even thoughEMG detection and processing has been done by many other researchers, need of improved model is still rising. The notion of this study is to propound a novel approach whereby quantification of EMG signal for foot flexion can be done. Signal processing and data analysis, played substantial role in that, thus present study had used contemporary frequency analysis methodology. The Biopac’s software tool, Acqknowledge, was explored for the purpose and the results obtained were quite precise. Further to increase its reliability, analysis was performed over data samples of more than 10 subjects.

Comparative Analysis of Wavelet-based Feature Extraction for Intramuscular EMG Signal Decomposition
Background: Electromyographic (EMG) signal decomposition is the process by which an EMG signal is decomposed into its constituent motor unit potential trains (MUPTs). A major step in EMG decomposition is feature extraction in which each detected motor unit potential (MUP) is represented by a feature vector. As with any other pattern recognition system, feature extraction has a significant impac...

The tremor injury is one of the common symptoms of Parkinson's disease. The patients suffering from Parkinson's disease have difficulty in controlling their movements owing to tremor. The intensity of the disease can be determined through specifying the range of intensity values of involuntary tremor in Parkinson patients. The level of disease in patients is determined through an empirical rang...
متن کاملEMG-based Fatigue Assessment During Endurance Testing With Different VT Protocols
BACKGROUND: Muscle fatigue can be defined as the failure of a muscle to maintain a reasonably expected force output. The multivariate approach to fatigue assessment is used because the multiple (EMG) feature provides more information than anyone. OBJECTIVE: This study presents a method of assessing muscle fatigue during endurance testing at 50% maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) using electro...
