Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of brain-computer interface technology, and in particular to an active collection electrode, a charging device, an electroencephalogram collection system and an application method. Background Art

[0002] Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) is a system that directly converts central nervous system (CNS) activities into artificial outputs, aiming to improve the interaction between the central nervous system and the external environment. A typical BCI system usually consists of four main parts: signal acquisition, signal analysis, peripheral control, and neural feedback. Among them, signal acquisition is the primary link of the system. Its acquisition accuracy and signal quality directly determine the effect of subsequent signal processing, so it plays a vital role in the BCI system.

[0003] In the process of signal acquisition, electroencephalogram (EEG) is widely used in BCI systems due to its non-invasive, real-time and high temporal resolution characteristics. EEG is a method of recording electrophysiological signals generated by placing electrodes on the surface of the scalp to record the activity of cortical neurons. Its main advantage is that it can capture the potential fluctuations of brain regions with a temporal resolution of milliseconds, thereby accurately reflecting the instantaneous dynamic characteristics of different functional areas of the brain. However, in the process of transmitting from the cortex to the surface of the scalp, EEG signals will be affected by various media such as the scalp, skull, cerebrospinal fluid and blood. The conductive properties of these biological media will form a volume conductor effect to varying degrees. When EEG signals are diffused and mixed through different media, the position and intensity of the signal source are distorted, making the collected EEG signals not only have a low spatial resolution, but also difficult to accurately locate the source of neural activity. This effect is particularly significant on conventional disc electrodes, causing the spatial characteristics of the signal to be blurred, thereby reducing the accuracy of signal analysis and classification in the BCI system, and limiting its application in complex cognitive tasks and high-precision control.

[0004] The prior art proposes an active electrode, which adds a preamplifier circuit on the basis of the traditional disk electrode to perform preliminary amplification at the signal acquisition source to reduce interference, but this active electrode has the following defects:

[0005] 1) The preamplifier circuit needs to use a standard operational amplifier module and requires a power supply, filtering and protection circuit, which makes the overall package volume of the electrode larger and increases the difficulty of electrode layout;

[0006] 2) Due to the addition of the preamplifier circuit, this type of electrode needs to be laid out separately for power lines and signal transmission lines, resulting in a complex wiring structure. In a system with a high number of channels, a large number of power lines and signal lines are intertwined, which can easily cause wiring confusion, signal crosstalk, and other problems, affecting the overall convenience and stability of use;

[0007] 3) The active electrode needs to be independently equipped with a reference electrode during signal acquisition, which can easily introduce common reference contamination and lead to poor signal acquisition quality;

[0008] 4) The active electrode cannot be connected to a variety of different types of amplifiers, which limits its application scenarios;

[0009] 5) The active electrode is powered by AC power or a standard DC power supply. This power supply method is easily affected by power frequency interference and power supply fluctuations. Once the voltage fluctuates or the power supply is poorly grounded, the stability of the output signal of the amplifier circuit will be seriously affected, resulting in obvious power frequency noise or baseline drift in the collected signal, thereby reducing the quality and availability of the EEG signal.

For example, the first threshold and the second threshold are only used to distinguish different thresholds, and their order is not limited. Those skilled in the art can understand that words such as "first" and "second" do not limit the quantity and execution order, and words such as "first" and "second" do not necessarily limit them to be different.

Specifically, the use of words such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present related concepts in a specific way.

[0085] In the present invention, "at least one" means one or more, and "plurality" means two or more. "And / or" describes the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that three relationships may exist. For example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone, where A and B can be singular or plural. The character " / " generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

For example, at least one item (items) of a, b or c can mean: a, b, c, the combination of a and b, the combination of a and c, the combination of b and c, or the combination of a, b and c, where a, b, c can be single or multiple.

[0086] The present invention aims to propose an active collection electrode, a charging device, an EEG collection system and an application method, which can solve the problems of existing active electrodes, such as difficulty in layout, poor convenience and stability in use, easy introduction of common reference pollution, and great influence of voltage fluctuations.

[0087] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides an active collection electrode, see Figure 1 The active collection electrode 1 comprises: a rechargeable power supply component 10, an active circuit board 11, an electrode base 12, a Laplace electrode inner ring 13, a Laplace electrode outer ring 14 and an insulating patch 15; the rechargeable power supply component 10 supplies power to the active circuit board 11; the electrode base 12 is located on the rechargeable power supply component 10; the electrode base 12 has an annular accommodation space at one end away from the rechargeable power supply component 10; the Laplace electrode inner ring 13 is accommodated in the inner ring space of the annular accommodation space, and the Laplace electrode outer ring 14 is accommodated in the outer ring space of the annular accommodation space; the Laplace electrode inner ring 13 and the Laplace electrode outer ring 14 are directly connected to the active circuit board 11;

[0088] See also Figure 2 Compared with the traditional arrangement of disk electrodes, the present invention adopts a two-ring Laplace electrode. The inner ring of the Laplace electrode is used as a reference electrode, and the outer ring of the Laplace electrode is used to collect EEG signals. The EEG signals collected by the outer ring are then differentially processed with the reference signals of the inner ring, thereby avoiding the common reference pollution problem introduced by independent reference electrodes, significantly improving the signal quality in the multi-channel acquisition process, improving the reliability of EEG signal acquisition, and helping to improve the spatial resolution of EEG signals.

[0089] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The Laplace electrode inner ring 13 and the Laplace electrode outer ring 14 are directly connected to the active circuit board 11, and the active circuit board 11 is equipped with an amplification module, a high-pass filter module and a low-pass filter module to amplify and filter the differential signals of the Laplace electrode inner ring 13 and the Laplace electrode outer ring 14 in sequence. The active circuit of the active circuit board 11 takes the differential signal of the Laplace electrode inner ring 13 and the Laplace electrode outer ring 14 as input, see Figure 4, the positive input end of the active circuit is connected to the outer ring 14 of the Laplace electrode, and the negative input end is connected to the inner ring 13 of the Laplace electrode. A capacitor is provided on the transmission path of the collected signal from the outer ring 14 of the Laplace electrode to the amplification module. The capacitor filters the collected signal before amplification. Then, the appropriate amplification factor is selected by the amplification module configured on the active circuit board 11, and the differential signal is pre-amplified. Then, the high-pass filter module and the low-pass filter module are used to weaken the influence of low-frequency interference, baseline drift and high-frequency noise, so as to ensure high-quality transmission of the signal within the effective frequency band and improve the stability and accuracy of signal acquisition. In addition, a voltage stabilization module is also configured on the active circuit board 11 to convert the voltage provided by the rechargeable power supply component 10 into the required stable voltage. With such a design, the electrode itself can directly perform preliminary amplification and filtering processing on the signal at the signal source, which can significantly reduce the influence of long wire transmission on signal quality, and can effectively suppress the power frequency interference and motion artifact interference introduced by the large loop, improve the signal-to-noise ratio and overall stability of the collected signal, and effectively ensure the high-fidelity collection and transmission of weak EEG signals.

The rechargeable battery 101 (for example, a lithium battery) is used to provide a low-noise linear stable voltage to the active circuit board 11 to reduce the interference of electrical noise. One end of the contact seat 102 is fastened to the active circuit board 11 to connect the positive and negative power supply interfaces, and the other end of the contact seat 102 is connected to the charging contact of the charging device to connect the charging circuit board in the charging device; and / or, an extension interface 120 is provided on the extension of the electrode base 12 longitudinally. The active collection electrode provided in this embodiment is powered by an independent rechargeable battery 101 in the rechargeable power supply component 10, without the need for a power cable, which can eliminate the interference problem caused by the power cable and improve flexibility.

[0092] See also Figure 1 and Figure 6The electrode base 12 is provided with an annular accommodation space for accommodating the inner ring 13 and the outer ring 14 of the Laplace electrode. The insulating patch 15 is fitted with the electrode base 12 and isolates the inner ring 13 and the outer ring 14 of the Laplace electrode. In practical application, the insulating patch 15 can be made of double-sided adhesive cotton. The electrode is attached to the subject's head through the insulating patch 15, which can not only make the electrode in close contact with the subject's scalp, but also improve the subject's comfort and can be flexibly arranged on the subject's head.

[0097] As a possible implementation manner, the Laplace electrode inner ring 13 and the Laplace electrode outer ring 14 are made of silver-silver chloride material, disposable Ag / AgCl, silver, gold, platinum, stainless steel or tin.

[0098] In the active collection electrode provided in this embodiment, the inner ring of the Laplace electrode and the outer ring of the Laplace electrode are concentric ring structures. The inner ring of the electrode and the outer ring of the electrode are made of highly conductive and biocompatible materials such as silver-silver chloride material, disposable Ag / AgCl, silver, gold, platinum, stainless steel or tin, which can significantly improve the service life and signal quality of the electrode.

[0099] As a possible implementation, the area of ​​the inner ring 13 of the Laplace electrode is S1, the area of ​​the outer ring 14 of the Laplace electrode is S2, and S2 / S1=1.5-11.4; for example, 1.4, 7.9, 9, 11.4.

[0100] See also Figure 8 As a possible implementation, the radius of the Laplace electrode inner ring 13 is Rs, Rs≤4mm; the inner diameter of the Laplace electrode outer ring 14 is Ri, Rs<Ri≤8mm; the outer diameter of the Laplace electrode outer ring 14 is Ro, Ri<Ro≤12mm.

[0101] For example, Rs is 4 mm, Ri is 8 mm, and Ro is 12 mm, in which case S2 / S1=7.9; or Rs is 2.2 mm, Ri is 7 mm, and Ro is 10 mm, in which case S2 / S1=11.4; or Rs is 1 mm, Ri is 4 mm, and Ro is 5 mm, in which case S2 / S1=9.

[0102] As an example, the area ratio of the Laplace electrode outer ring 14 to the Laplace electrode inner ring 13 may also be S2 / S1=1-1.5; when S2 / S1=1, the areas of the inner ring and the outer ring are equal. Fig. 9 , the inner and outer rings of the Laplace electrode are equivalent to input resistances. From U=I*R, it can be seen that the common-mode signals of the inner and outer rings are equal, otherwise they will be interfered by the amplifier. The best output result is that the differential-mode signal of the inner and outer rings is the largest, and the differential-mode signal is determined by the resistor R. ρ is the resistivity of the material in Ω·cm, S is the cross-sectional area of ​​the material in cm 2 , l represents the length of the material, in cm; it can be seen that the resistance can be equal only when the area S is equal. Therefore, when S2 / S1=1, that is, the area of ​​the inner ring and the outer ring is equal, the signal loss is minimal, but in this case, the complexity of the electrode manufacturing process is greatly increased, and it is difficult to apply to mass production.

[0103] In order to avoid the active collection electrode being too large, the present invention does not set the size of the Laplace electrode inner ring 13 and the Laplace electrode outer ring 14 too large to avoid the problem of poor contact between the electrode and the subject's scalp. In addition, the embodiment of the present invention optimizes the radius and area ratio of the Laplace electrode inner ring and the Laplace electrode outer ring, and uses the original signal collected by the optimized electrode to perform differential processing to obtain a differential mode signal. In this way, the common mode signal interference to the differential mode signal is low, and the radius and area ratio provided by this embodiment are simpler and easier to implement for the manufacturing process of the active collection electrode, and can be applied to large-scale industrial production.

[0104] See also Fig.10 As an example, the active reference electrode fully considers the compatibility with the existing general amplifiers and realizes the connection with various types of general amplifiers in a common reference manner. That is, the inner ring of the Laplace electrode is connected to the reference end of the amplifier, so that the amplifier can receive the analog signal of the active acquisition electrode and perform digital-to-analog conversion on the analog signal to obtain EEG data, which greatly expands the application scope of the active reference electrode.

[0105] See also Fig.11 , is the comparative experimental result of measuring the self-noise of the system when the input terminal is short-circuited, Fig.11 (a) is the noise when directly collecting using a general purpose amplifier (NEU). Fig.11 (b) is the noise equivalent to the input end after adding the active collection electrode (ACC) of this embodiment to the front end of the general amplifier. By comparison, it can be seen that adding the active collection electrode effectively reduces the noise, which is about 6 times lower than not adding the active collection electrode, indicating that the active collection electrode of the present invention can greatly improve the clarity and reliability of signal collection.

[0106] See also Fig.12 , is the result of a comparative experiment with a standard sinusoidal signal source placed at the input end. Fig.12 (a) is the signal waveform display when directly using the universal amplifier (NEU) to collect. Fig.12 (b) is the signal waveform after being processed by the active collection electrode (ACC) of this embodiment. Fig.12 The waveform of (a) is obviously distorted, while Fig.12 The waveform of (b) is basically consistent with the standard sinusoidal signal, which shows that the active collection electrode of the present invention can significantly improve the fidelity of the signal, making the collection of weak signals more accurate.
