چکیده

The bandwidth of membrane current measurements in potential-clamped Ranvier nodes is limited by the low-pass filter properties of the internodes. If about 35% of the current measuring internode is grounded via an additional electrode, the bandwidth of this internode increases by a factor of about 40. Consequently, in potential clamp experiments the measured time course of the early ionic currents changes markedly, while the duration of the capacity current is shortened.

On the capacity current in myelinated nerve fibres.

Different equivalent circuits are presented to describe the capacity current, Ic, of potential-clamped Ranvier nodes. The corresponding transfer functions are discussed in examining the influence of the involved parameters on size and time course of Ic. The following results were obtained: i. The duration and the amplitude of Ic increased with increasing membrane capacity. ii. The amplitude of ...

A New Strategy for Simultaneous Compensation of Instantaneous Reactive Power and Harmonics of Non-Linear Loads (RESEARCH NOTE)

This paper presents a new control method for simultaneous compensation of instantaneous reactive power and current harmonics by parallel active filters (PAFs). Reference compensating currents of PAF are calculated using the subtraction of instantaneous power from its average value. In this way, it is possible omitting high/low pass filter(s) from the control circuit of PAF, which usually result...

Conduction velocity and spike configuration in myelinated fibres: computed dependence on internode distance.

It has been argued theoretically and confirmed experimentally that conduction velocity (theta) should be proportional to nerve fibre diameter for myelinated fibre tracts, such as normal peripheral nerve, exhibiting 'structural' similarity'. In some axons, however, the nodes of Ranvier are more closely spaced than in normal peripheral nerve. Analytic arguments have suggested that when internodal...

Closed-Loop Compensation of the Quadrature Error in MEMS Vibratory Gyroscopes

In this paper, a simple but effective method for compensation of the quadrature error in MEMS vibratory gyroscope is provided. The proposed method does not require any change in the sensor structure, or additional circuit in the feedback path. The mathematical relations of the proposed feedback readout system were analyzed and the proposed solution assures good rejection capabilities. Based on ...

A New Trans-admittance-Mode Biquad Filter Suitable for Low Voltage Operation

The trans-admittance-mode (TAM) might act as a transforming bridge for voltage-mode to current-mode conversion. In this study a new low voltage operated electronically tunable TAM biquad filter structure realizing all the seven standard filtering functions namely; low-pass (LP), band-pass (BP), high-pass (HP), regular-notch (RN), low-pass-notch (LPN), high-pass-notch (HPN) and all-pass (AP) fro...
