Abstract

A myoelectric signal, under sustained isometric contraction of muscle the modelled as the output of a linear time-varying system whose input is constant number of pulse train. The proposed model considered localized muscle fatigue by metabolic by-products during sustained fatiguing contraction. To characterize muscle fatiguing model of myoelectric signal, We calculated median frequency of generated signal as fatiguing index of muscle during sustained isometric contraction.
