Muscle fatigue causes numerous injuries among workers in industries involving mechanical labour each year. This study explores a new feature based on energy of detail wavelet coefficient for muscle fatigue detection in the upper limb. The muscle fatigue data was generated after isometric muscle action. 7 subjects underwent 3 trails each using 3 channels corresponding to Biceps Brachii, Extensor Digitorum...
It is known that standing induces orthostatic stress on the cardiovascular system. Our previous works have presented that the postural control during standing and cardiovascular changes are related to each other in the health young individuals. However, it remains to be checked if such a relationship is present in the elderly individuals as well. The present study conducted experiments similar to...
Motor unit recruitment pattern represents the time-frequency characteristics of muscle contraction. The Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) is a time-frequency signal analysis but its ability to identify motor unit recruitment pattern is still unclear. The purpose of this study was to validate the CWT in identifying the differences in motor unit recruitment pattern, regarding time-space domains, between...
In this paper a new method for removing of Power Line Interference (PLI) and ECG Signal from EMG signal is proposed. This method is designed based on filtering of EMG signal corrupted with interference of power line and ECG (EMG+PLI+ECG), by using Matching Pursuit (MP) that is a time-frequency transform. For this reason, according to the cosine nature of PLI and alternative mode of ECG signal, Cosine...
Wavelet analysis is often very effective because it provides a simple approach for dealing with local aspects of a signal. The electromyogram (EMG) signals arising from muscle activities have become a useful tool for clinical diagnosis, rehabilitation medicine and sport medicine. In this paper, a time-frequency analysis based on the wavelet transform of the EMG signals is presented with a focus on...
Frequency domain analyses of changes in electromyographic (EMG) signals over time are frequently used to assess muscle fatigue. Fourier based approaches are typically used in these analyses, yet Fourier analysis assumes signal stationarity, which is unlikely during dynamic contractions. Wavelet based methods of signal analysis do not assume stationarity and may be more appropriate for joint time-frequency...
To date various signal processing techniques have been applied to surface electromyography (SEMG) for feature extraction and signal classification. Compared with traditional analysis methods which have been used in previous application, continuous wavelet transform (CWT) enhances the SEMG features more effectively. This paper presents methods of analysing SEMG signals using CWT and LabVIEW for extracting...

This paper is about the design of a system that can detect four channel electromyogram (EMG) signals. EMG signals can be acquired, transformed into electrical signals and input into computer through AD acquisition card. The computer then processes the data and the signal figures are displayed on the screen. In the signals processing system various methods integrated such as adaptive filtering, the...
