Summary This article deals with the estimation of event-related coherence (ERCoh) and its application to the planning and execution of self-paced index finger movement. ERCoh estimation complements the event-related desynchronization (ERD) measurements of rhythms within the alpha band. ERCoh yields information of the functional relationships between different brain areas as a function of time. The time resolution is 125 msec. Before movement onset a contralateral ERCoh increase was found between premotor and motor areas. This coherence increase was accompanied by an ERCoh decrease in parallel to the ERD over the contralateral centro-temporal areas. During movement, the ERD became bilaterally symmetrical. Simultaneously, interhemispheric coherence between contralateral and ipsilateral sensori-motor areas increased.
