To record bipolar EEG, you will need an EEG amplifier for each pair of electrodes that you want to calculate the potential difference between. It is important to note that you can also derive bipolar measurements from unipolar measurements. This is done in software. For example, if you are recording from sites A, B, C in unipolar you can then get the following bipolar measurements:
AB by calculating A-B
BC by calculating B-C
AC by calculating A-C
If you want to look at all possible pairs, you can calculate the combinations without repetition: n!/(r!(n-r)!) where n is the number of electrodes and r is 2.
Here is a reference for the number of EEG amplifiers required if you need to look at all electrode pair potential differences:
2 electrodes: 1 amplifier
3 electrodes: 3 amplifiers
4 electrodes: 6 amplifiers
5 electrodes: 10 amplifiers
6 electrodes: 15 amplifiers

With new developments happening daily, it’s easy to forget to slow down and take a breath. Breathing can be as forgettable as it is crucial; the often forgettable automatic function inspires rituals in religions around the world. Studies have shown the importance of breathing not just in a spiritual sense but also in physiological health benefits. Lung functionality […]
