Mobile monitoring of muscular strain sensor based on Wireless Body Area Network

The use of the muscle strain sensor, Electromyogram (EMG), is still very limited in Electromyograph device so that the results can only be monitored through these devices. Other solutions are necessary so that the signal generated by the EMG sensor can be sent to the device or network that can extend the signal from the EMG sensor area. That is what underlies the author making a research on the implementation and monitoring of EMG sensors in a Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN). In the present study, the use of EMG can be expanded by utilizing WBAN that can transmit information through the network, so that the results of the EMG sensor can be determined and analyzed by a physician or an expert despite the distance apart with patients. Implementation and monitoring of the EMG sensors in making use of a Wireless Body Area Network, is very helpful for patients through applications that can be accessed by mobile devices. The different types of devices are not an obstacle to the application can run on a variety of devices with different screen sizes and specifications.
