Muscle activity is composed of fast and slow activations. The detection of the onset time of the electromyogram signal, which is slowly activated, is difficult. This paper proposes a detection method based on marginal spectral entropy (MSE). The surface electromyography (sEMG) signal of the soleus during normal walking was collected by a wireless electromyography acquisition system. The proposed MSE-based detection method is based on the Hilbert–Huang transform (HHT) combined with information entropy. By comparing the changes in MSE before and after muscle activation to plot a trend line, the point of fastest change on the trend line was defined as the onset time of muscle activation. This method was compared with the amplitude threshold method and the Teager–Kaiser energy (TKE) operator method. The results show that the onset time of muscle activation detected by this method is 0.14 s earlier than the amplitude threshold method and 0.16 s earlier than the TKE operator method. The detection results were significantly different (p < 0.05), indicating that this method has higher detection accuracy for the onset time of the sEMG signal, which is slowly activated. Full article
