Abstract

The use of electroencephalogram (EEG) waves in the field of Brain Computer Interfaces (BCI) has recently attracted a lot of interest, with varied applications ranging from entertainment to medicine emerging, showing that EEG waves are suitable for controlling appliances through a microcontroller. This study presents an offline strategy for the extraction of digital control signals from brain EEG waves using MATLAB/SIMULINK. The principle is applied as follows: (i) the extraction of α- and β-bands from the original brain EEG wave; (ii) detection of the peaks of both bands; and (iii) calculation of the power density of both bands to classify the mental mode and to generate appropriate control signals. Simulation results including signal processing tracking for various EEG waves are demonstrated that verify the effectiveness of the proposed strategy in terms of using brain EEG waves for apparatus control.
