  • Title: Cochlear nerve fiber discharge patterns: relationship to the cochlear microphonic.
    Author: Pfeiffer RR, Molnar CE.
    Journal: Science; 1970 Mar 20; 167(3925):1614-6. PubMed ID: 5415172.
    Abstract:
    Fourier analysis of discharge patterns in response to sinusoidal acoustic stimulation provides a consistent and repeatable measure of response phase and amplitude. The variation of the fundamental and harmonic components of the patterns as stimulus parameters are changed is strikingly similar to that of cochlear microphonics. The results are significantly different for single fibers with different characteristic frequencies; the variations parallel those of microphonics recorded from different cochlear turns.
