摘要：
A strap band including a flexible wire bus having electrodes and wires coupled with the electrodes is described. The strap band may be coupled with a device that includes circuitry configured to drive signals on some of the electrodes and receive signals from non-driven electrodes. The signal frequency applied to driven electrodes may be varied to increase/decrease signal penetration depth to sense different body structures positioned at different depths in the body portion. Different frequencies for different types of measurements may be selected to optimize sensing of bio-impedance, galvanic skin response, hear rate, respiration, heart rate variability, hydration, inflammation, stress, and arousal in sympathetic nervous system. A system clock frequency may be one of the frequencies used. A magnitude of the drive signal, a gain on the received signal or both, may be adjusted based on the frequency selected and/or to sense signals from the body structure(s) of interest.
