<p>For didactic purposes, the aim of this work was to improve a simulation model of surface electromyographic (sEMG) signal by taking into consideration the shortcomings of previously developed models. This model started with the simulation of the single fibre action potential (SFAP), then the model of the single motor unit action potential (MUAP), afterwards the imitation of the train of MUAP and finally the modellig of the resultant sEMG signal which is the sum of the MUAPs trains. SFAP simulation was based on: i) the description of the volume conductor model which is composed of four layers (bone, muscle, fat and skin), ii) the description of the electrodes shapes and sizes as well as spatial filters, iii) and the transmebrane current. The proposed model shows its effectiveness in the possibility of carrying out practical work by simulation on the modelling of SFAP, MUAP, MUAPT and the sEMG signal. The most important result of this model is that signal processing tools can be applied to analyze and interpret real-world phenomena such as the effects of physiological, non physiological and sensing system parameters on the shape of the simulated sEMG signal.</p>
