Abstract |
Lyon (J Acoust Soc Am 130:3893-3904, 2011) has described how a cascade of simple asymmetric resonators (CAR) can be used to simulate the filtering of the basilar membrane and how the gain of the resonators can be manipulated by a feedback network to simulate the fast-acting compression (FAC) characteristic of cochlear processing. When the compression is applied to complex tones, each pair of primary components produces both quadratic and cubic distortion tones (DTs), and the cascade architecture of the CAR-FAC system propagates them down to their appropriate place along the basilar membrane, where they combine additively with each other and any primary components at that frequency. This suggests that CAR-FAC systems might be used to study the role of compressive distortion in the perception of complex sounds and that behavioural measurements of cochlear distortion data might be useful when tuning the parameters of CAR-FAC systems. |
