Abstract(in English) It is important to place a surface EMG signals electrode properly on the skin during dynamic movement. Although, various physical data can be obtained from the surface EMG signals, correct evaluation of movement sometimes fails due to insufficient placement of surface EMG signals electrodes. We measured the surface EMG signals at 15 contacts on the skin of the vastus lateralis muscle using a 16-bar multi-array electrode during exercise, on which each contact was 1 -cm apart. Then, we explored suitable locations for measuring bipolar surface EMG signals, estimating muscle fiber conduction velocity (MFCV) at each triplet of electrode contacts. Moreover, we showed how to locate practical array electrodes such as 2-bar or 4-bar electrodes on the skin, based on the investigation of propagation pattern of the surface EMG signals by the 16-bar multi-array electrode.
