摘要: A technique has been developed which enables the decomposition (separation) of a myoelectric signal into its constituent motor unit action potential trains. It consists multichannel (via one electrode) recording procedure, data compression algorithm, digital filtering and hybrid visual-computer scheme. The algorithms have implemented on PDP 11/34 computer. Of four major segments technique, scheme is by far most involved. algorithm uses a-sophisticated template matching routine details firing statistics units to identify potentials in signal, even when they are super-imposed with other potentials. In general, do not run automatically. They require input from human operator maintain reliability accuracy during decomposition.
