Abstract
The present disclosure facilitates capture (e.g., bipolar capture) of differentially-acquired wide-band phase gradient signals (e.g., wide-band cardiac phase gradient signals, wide-band cerebral phase gradient signals) that are simultaneously sampled. Notably, the exemplified system minimizes non-linear distortions (e.g., those that can be introduced via certain filters such as phase distortions) in the acquired wide-band phase gradient signals so as to not affect the information therein that can non-deterministically affect analysis of the wide-band phase gradient signal in the phase space domain. Further, a shield drive circuit and shield-drive voltage plane may be used to facilitate low noise and low interference operation of the acquisition system.
