Digital Biosignal Processing
MATLAB Laboratory 1
Two EMG signals have been recorded from the biceps brachii muscle of a healthy subject during a voluntary contraction. The two EMG bipolar systems have been spaced by 24 mm and mounted between the innervation zone and the distal tendon. A segment of these signals is saved in the matlab data file Signals_EMG.mat. The sampling frequency during the experimental recording was 2048 Hz. The aim of this exercise if to estimate with high accuracy the conduction velocity of the active muscle fibres by processing the two recorded signals. A scheme of the experiment is reported below.
Study the short Matlab script. provided and understand the meaning of the parameters. Use the Matlab script. to estimate conduction velocity from the signals provided. Change the parameters of the script. to obtain estimates with different step sizes, downsampling factors, and number of steps. The script. provides plot of the signals before and after time shift.
In your report, please provide the following:
- For the optimal alignment case, plot the two signals in time domain and report the set of parameters (step size, number of steps, downsampling factor) used for this plot in a table. Report the optimal delay and estimated conduction velocity. [30%]
- Plot the estimation error (variable MSE_vect in the Matlab function) as a function of the delay, for downsampling factors M=1,2,4,8 (please include all graphs for the different M in the same plot with different colors). For each M, report the optimal delay, estimated conduction velocity, and optimal MSE in a table. Comment on the estimates in the different cases of downsampling factors. [70%]
PLEASE NOTICE: The report is limited to 1 A4 page, including all graphs and comments.
