Abstract :
A novel wearable physiological monitoring system is presented in this paper. The related signal and noise characteristics obtained by the system under electromagnetic and body motion interferences are analyzed and the performance of the active electrode circuit is assessed. It is concluded that the active electrode can eliminate the noise caused by electromagnetic interference significantly, but has less effect on body motion interference.
