Abstract:
The electro-conductive fabric (e-textile or e-fabric) as an electrode for ECG measurement is one of the best application for ubiquitous healthcare system. However, it is difficult to measure the bio-signal due to its sensitivity variation caused by impedance change, especially by motion of the subject. In this paper, adaptive motion artifacts reduction using motion information from 3-axis accelerometer is proposed and analyzed in quantitative manner.

Instrumentation Amplifier
An electrocardiography (ECG) machine is an essential piece of medical equipment used to monitor the electrical activity of the heart. It operates by detecting small electrical changes on the skin that result from the depolarization of the heart muscle during each heartbeat. However, these signals are in the microvolt range and can be easily overwhelmed by noise or interference.

Relative Motion Analysis using Rotating Axes - Acceleration
Consider a component AB undergoing a linear motion. Along with a linear motion, point B also rotates around point A. To comprehend this complex movement, position vectors for both points A and B are established using a stationary reference frame. The absolute velocity of point B is determined by adding the absolute velocity of point A, the relative velocity of point B in the rotating frame, and the effects caused by the angular velocity within the rotating frame.
