The use of m pulse sequences in the study of nonlinearities in the brainstem auditory evoked response
Y. Shi, Kurt E. Hecox · 2003
The auditory system is represented by a third-order Volterra series, and the cross-section function resulting from applying the cross-correlation method with an m pulse sequence as the input is derived in terms of Volterra kernels. The function can be used to predict system responses to pulse trains of different pulse rates. It is therefore concluded that the m pulse sequence may be an effective and efficient stimulus for studying nonlinear rate effects in neurological systems.>
