Evaluation of sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) using skin sympathetic nerve activity (SKNA) signal has attracted interest in recent studies. However, signal noises may obstruct the accurate location for the burst of SKNA, leading to the quantification error of the signal. In this study, we use the T...
