TL;DR: Practical conclusions regarding the experimental conditions that optimize IBC performance for each coupling technique have been obtained and a comprehensive set of measurements has been carried out by analyzing fundamental IBC parameters such as optimum frequency range, maximum channel length, and type of electrodes.

TL;DR: A simple model based on a distributed parameter structure with the flexibility to adapt to both galvanic and capacitive coupling has been proposed and allowed to provide some practical rules to optimally tackle IBC design.

TL;DR: The basis and fundamentals of bioimpedance measurements are described covering issues ranging from the hardware diagrams to the configurations and designs of the electrodes and from the mathematical models that describe the frequency behavior of the bioimpingance to the sources of noise and artifacts.

TL;DR: The hardware and software design and implementation of a low-cost, wearable, and unobstructive intelligent accelerometer sensor for the monitoring of human physical activities to promote healthy lifestyles to elders and for the early detection of psychomotor abnormalities is presented.

TL;DR: Unlike other computational models for IBC, this work has modeled the differential configuration of the galvanic coupling as a four-port network in order to analyze the electric field distribution and current density through different tissues, providing insight into signal transmission paths through the human body.
