Volley theory
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Volley theory attempts to account for the maximum theoretical limit for the neuronal firing of action potentials and the small time scales over which sound discrimination must occur. In this theory, the organ of corti in the cochlear that transduces the sound into action potentials must combine multiple stimuli along the cochlear nerve within a volley in order to encode high frequency auditory stimuli.
