Compact Wireless EEG system with active electrodes for daily healthcare monitoring

Abstract

Development of Wireless EEG system is described. Realtime impedance monitoring and active electrodes are introduced in order to reduce noise from impedance changes caused due to body motion, and to prevent noise from power line interference, respectively. EEG ASICs are developed for the system. The complete system has a low noise (60nV/√Hz) and is packaged in a compact enclosure (38mm × 38mm × 16mm). The system is evaluated against different types of artefacts and possible applications with the system are discussed.
