Abstract

In this research, we investigated the effect of changes in walking speed on variations of the complexity of electromyogram (EMG) signals recorded from the right and left legs of subjects. We specifically employed fractal theory and approximate entropy to analyze the changes in the complexity of EMG signals recorded from 13 subjects walked at 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, and 4.0 km/h on a flat surface. The results showed that by increasing of walking speed, the complexity of EMG signals decreases. The statistical analysis also indicated the significant effect of variations in walking speed on the variations of the complexity of EMG signals. This method analysis can be applied to other physiological signals of humans (e.g. electroencephalogram (EEG) signals) to investigate the effect of walking speed on other organs’ activations (e.g. brain).
