Simulation analysis of bandpass filtering properties of a rod photoreceptor network

The bandpass filtering properties of a rod network were studied via computer simulations. Sinusoidal current stimuli were applied to a single rod model to characterize its temporal filtering properties. The simulated frequency response revealed that a single rod behaves as a bandpass filter whose ch...
