Abstract
The nerve impulse is induced by the stimulation of neuron or axon, and this stimulated voltage decays along the propagation distance and time if it is subtreshold potential. This behavior can be estimated using the electrical equivalent circuit because it is very similar to propagation phenomenon of electrical circuit to which Ohm's law is applied. Therefore, I calculated various biometric parameters of body, and then analyzed the propagation behavior of stimulated potential voltage using the distributed parameters of electrical circuit in this paper.
