title: Simulated hair cell transduction of quasi-frequency-modulated and amplitude-modulated tones.
abstract: This paper describes a method for calculating the effect of simulated hair cell transduction on (i) a quasi-frequency-modulated (quasi-FM) tone and on (ii) an amplitude-modulated (AM) tone. The main finding is that the effect of the transduction on AM and quasi-FM (which have the same power spectra but whose phase spectra differ), is to produce different power spectra.
