  • Abstract
    A new method for the non invasive estimation of motor unit distribution within the muscle is proposed. It is based on the surface EMG signal detected at different contraction levels in single differential configuration from an array of electrodes placed over the considered muscle in the direction orthogonal to the fibres.
