Abstract
This study used EMG coherence to investigate the correlation between muscle fatigue and beta-band energy after the dynamic biceps brachii contraction. HD-sEMG signals were acquired in experiment. 9 healthy subjects participated in the muscle contraction task (from non-fatigue to fatigue), Each participant was asked to perform two trails of experiments and exert their max-muscular strength in each trial. The result shows a significant correlation [p = 0.0058 < 0.01] between fatigue and energy in beta-band.
