Heart rate is a very important indicator for both amount of exercise and motor function. A waistband-like bipolar ECG collect system was designed and used. Traditional method was ineffective to get correct heart rate value from the bipolar ECG signals collected under motion state. Two popular time-frequency analysis methods were used and compared. The result showed that Discrete Wavelet Transform...
During exercise, analysis of the spectral components of the heart rate variability (i.e. R-R interval series variability; HRV) points out a new high frequency component related to the pedalling frequency. This component is independent of the classical low and high frequency bands related to the autonomic nervous system modulation of the heart period. It is not related to ECG distortion or artifacts,...
For customizing the assistance scheme of a torque-assisted bicycle, we estimated physical activity during cycling with ECG and surface EMG for the circuit including a steep uphill section near the middle and compared it with the vehicle data. Using the respiratory-sinus-arrhythmia-related power ratio in the fluctuation of the R-R interval, prRSA and a muscular fatigue index, we classified physical...

The abstract with its heading should not be more than 75 mm long. This is equivalent to 18 lines of text. Leave 1 line space at the bottom of the abstract before continuing with the next heading. The autonomic nervous system modulates atrial electrophysiology in atrial fibrillation (AF). The purpose of this study was (1) to non-invasively characterize the effects of exercise on atrial fibrillatory...
In the Eastern Alps in Europe, the Dachstein massif with a height of almost 3000 m is an ideal location for investigating the effects of changes in altitude on the human body. Within a few minutes, a cable car facilitates an ascent from 1702 m to 2700 m above sea level, where the partial pressure of oxygen is about 550 mmHg (as compared to 760 mmHg at sea level). In this study ten healthy subjects...
