Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Surface electromyography (sEMG) are widely adopted because of its scot-free. Because of the non-stationary of signals, sEMG signals can be classified in wavelet packet transform to obtain effective parameters.
OBJECTIVE: To design a detection circuit according to the characteristics of the sEMG, which can pick-up the SEMG signals for action recognition.
METHODS: The high CMMR preamplifier was designed to restrain the common code interference; low-pass filter and active double-T band-stop filter were carried on de-noising processing; sEMG signals could be classified in wavelet packet transform to obtain effective parameters.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In the experiment, the circuit could implement the anticipated target, pick-up the sEMG and restrain the interference with 50 Hz; further, four different actions on hands could be recognized by using sub band energy value extracted in the wavelet packet translation of the sEMG.
