Embodiment 1

[0049] Example 1: Combining simulation calculation to illustrate how the present invention extracts transient AEP (auditory evoked potential)

[0050] A stimulus generator capable of outputting stimuli with high time accuracy according to a custom stimulus sequence and recording the stimulus output time information at the same time. The EEG acquisition system can be a conventional system that meets the specifications.

The electrode impedance is less than 5KΩ.

[0052] (2) Stimulus output: First, the stimulus sequence meets the following conditions:

[0053] The stimulus sequence uses a periodic pulse train signal with a period of T, and its expression is:

[0077] Use an optimized stimulus sequence obtained in the sense of continuous time, such as figure 2 As shown in (a), the stimulation sequence includes 13 stimulation pulses, and the time when the stimulation pulse appears t i = {0, 110.6, 248.2, 363.2, 478.6, 614.8, 735.8, 867.1, 1006.5, 1130.1, 1240.7, 1351.3, 1490.8} ms, the length of the sequence is T = 1625.8 ms, the selected frequency band range [f L , F H ] Inverse of the spectrum|S c (kf 0 ) -1 |Such as figure 2 (d) Shown.

[0078] In order to explain the error caused by the extraction of transient evoked potentials through discrete Fourier transform in the prior art, we choose 10 sampling rates to convert the sequence into discrete sequences, and the specific sampling rates are {1,2,3,4,5 , 7, 9, 11, 15, 20}kHz. The discrete sequence at a sampling rate of 20kHz is like figure 2 (c) shows that t i 'Represents the posi...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for extracting evoked potentials under a high stimulation ratio. The method includes the steps of firstly, repeatedly outputting a stimulation sequence with vibration, sampling brain electrical signals of a testee under repeated stimulation of the stimulation sequence, and obtaining observation signals; secondly, conducting superposition average calculation on the observation signals, restraining random noise in the observation signals, and obtaining an average observation signal; thirdly, conducting fast Fourier transform on the average observation signal to obtain a frequency domain signal of the average observation signal, and calculating continuous cycle Fourier transform of the stimulation sequence to obtain a frequency domain signal of the stimulation sequence; fourthly, conducting calculation to obtain a frequency domain signal of a transient-state evoked potential; fifthly, conducting Fourier inversion to obtain a transient-state evoked potential signal in a time domain form. According to the method for extracting the evoked potentials under the high stimulation ratio, the influence of noise interference components on signal recovery is greatly reduced, and the transient-state evoked potentials can be accurately and stably extracted and recovered. The method for extracting the evoked potentials under the high stimulation ratio can be widely applied to the biomedical field.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of biomedical signal processing, in particular to a method for extracting transient evoked potentials under high stimulation rates by using continuous Fourier transform. Background technique [0002] Evoked potential (EP) is a comprehensive response of the brain to the electrical activity of external stimuli. Evoked potentials are of great significance in many disciplines such as clinical medicine, electrophysiology, psychology and cognitive science. At present, evoked potentials are mainly divided into three modes according to different stimulation methods: Auditory Evoked Potential (AEP), Visual Evoked Potential (VEP) and Somatosensory Evoked Potential (SEP). In addition, methods for obtaining evoked responses using magnetic, laser and other stimuli are also constantly being developed. [0003] Taking auditory transient stimuli as an example, the click sound (typical duration 0.1ms) used on the auditory system can induce...
