“…the depth of the signal source (Dimitrova et al, 2002). This is due to the fact that the power of the nonpropagating part of action potentials does not decrease with distance as much as the power of the traveling wave and is reflected in the higher bandwidth of the total EMG power, irrespective of the spatial filter (electrode configuration) used (Dimitrova et al, 2002;Farina et al, 2004a;Grassme et al, 2003). Therefore, by eliminating low-frequency power, HP and whitening might enhance the relative contribution of distant motor units to the recorded signal.…”
