From: Frequency Preference Response to Oscillatory Inputs in Two-dimensional Neural Models: A Geometric Approach to Subthreshold Amplitude and Phase Resonance

Fig. 2

Schematic diagrams of the impedance (a) and phase (b) profiles (impedance and phase as a function of the input frequency f). a1 Band-pass filter (resonance). a2 Low-pass filter (no resonance). b1 Zero-frequency phase crossing (phase-resonance). b2 Monotonically increasing and positive phase (no phase-resonance). a The resonant frequency f res is the input frequency f at which the impedance Z(f) reaches its maximum Z max . The resonance amplitude Q Z = Z max −Z(0) measures the resonance power. The half-width frequency band Λ 1 / 2 is the length of the frequency interval in between f res and the input frequency value at which Z(f)= Z max /2, and measures the system’s selectivity to incoming frequencies close to f res . b The phase-resonant frequency f phas is the zero-crossing phase frequency. The minimum phase ϕ min measures the magnitude of the negative phase
