摘要
Human sensitivity to frequency modulation (FM) is best for low carrier frequencies (<∼4–5 kHz) and slow modulation rates (<5–10 Hz). This high sensitivity is thought to be afforded by neural phase locking to temporal fine structure (TFS). At faster rates and higher carriers, TFS cues may no longer be available, with sensitivity to FM relying instead on conversion to amplitude modulation (AM) via cochlear filtering. One way to test this hypothesis is to measure the masking produced by additional AM, with the prediction that AM masking will be more pronounced when FM is encoded via AM than via TFS cues. This study tested AM masking of FM and of “simulated FM,” which involves out-of-phase AM dyads. FM detection was measured for carrier frequencies of 1 and 6 kHz and modulation rates of 2 and 20 Hz with and without AM masking. Preliminary results suggest that FM and simulated FM sensitivity is more affected by AM at fast than slow rates at both low and high carrier frequencies. Overall, the results do not provide support for the idea that AM interference can be used to distinguish between TFS- and envelope-based codes for FM. [Work supported by NIH grant R21 DC019409.]
