Neural Mechanisms of Behavior-related AcousticSignal Processing in Central Auditory Neurons ofCF-FM Bats

摘要

Due to a highly developed echolocation system,bats can accurately process and integrate acoustic parameters offluctuating environments to maintain optimum physiological and behavioral status.The neurophysiological mechanisms of thisbehavior have been extensively studied and it's time to review the progress of this research.This review is mainly about the neuralmechanism underlying in species-specific signal recognition,co-varying parameters processing,Doppler-shift compensation andmulti-harmonic signals processing which is related to echolocation.It will not only help us understand the strategy of how the batauditory system processes behavior-related acoustic signals,but also to raise some issues that remained unresolved,which needfurther intracellular studies in CF-FM bats as a model in the future.
