title: Noncontact ECG recording system with real time capacitance measurement for motion artifact reduction.
abstract: A system for noncontact ECG recording is proposed that measures the real time electrode-body capacitance concurrently with the ECG as a reference signal for motion artifact reduction. Simultaneous recordings of these two signals from the human body in the presence of electrode motion artifacts are shown and an adaptive least-mean-squares (LMS) filtering algorithm run on these signals is demonstrated to be able to reduce the severity of certain types of electrode motion artifacts.
