Research on Characteristics of Plant Electrical Signal under High Voltage Pulse Stimulation

Abstract:

In order to further understand the Agave americana var. marginata electrical signals in High Voltage Pulse Stimulation conditions, a new method is provided in this paper by using wavelet soft threshold noise reduction and the power spectrum analysis. The results show that the level `of its electrical distribution in uV. The plant electrical signal amplitude arithmetic mean increases with the increase of pulse stimulation signal but for a little effect on the natural frequency of the plant, its frequency is mainly distributed in the 0.07813 Hz ~0.1953 Hz.
