Anticipation for symmetric gap junctions. Top. GCell anticipation time and maximum firing rate as a function of the gap junction velocity \(v_{\mathrm{gap}}\). Bottom. Response curves of GCells corresponding for three values of \(v_{\mathrm{gap}}\): (A) \(v_{\mathrm{gap}} = 0.6~\text{mm/s}\), (B) \(v_{\mathrm{gap}} = 3~\text{mm/s}\), (C) \(v_{\mathrm{gap}} = 12~\text{mm/s}\). For consistency, we have kept the same values as in the asymmetric case. Here, anticipation time grows continuously until saturation, while the maximum firing decreases like a power law as a function of \(v_{\mathrm{gap}}\)
