Abstract

Provided is and electrode selection device communicating with a capsule endoscope. The device includes an analog front end configured to recover first data based on first signals transmitted from the capsule endoscope to a first electrode and a second electrode, recover second data based on second signals transmitted from the capsule endoscope to the first electrode and a third electrode, and recover third data based on third signals transmitted from the capsule endoscope to the second electrode and the third electrode, and a digital receiver configured to calculate a first correlation value between the first and second electrodes, a second correlation value between the first and third electrodes, and a third correlation value between the second and third electrodes based on the first to third data. The digital receiver calculates first to third correlation sums, and selects a receiving electrode pair based on the first to third correlation sums.
