The phenomenon of otoacoustic emissions is discussed in relation to the question--is the cochlear travelling wave actively enhanced? Distinctions are made between active loss reduction and true amplification, and between different types of emission source. The dynamic control exercised by the cochlea over the level of mechanical activity is analysed. An adaptive mechanism, capable of oscillatory transient behaviour is found both acoustically and psychophysically in response to strong low frequency stimulation. A feedback model is presented and used to predict aspects of emission behaviour.
本文围绕“耳蜗行波是否被主动增强”这一问题探讨了耳声发射现象。区分了主动损失降低和真正的放大，以及不同类型的发射源。分析了耳蜗对机械活动水平的动态控制。在声学和心理物理学方面均发现，响应强低频刺激时存在一种能够产生振荡瞬态行为的自适应机制。提出了一个反馈模型，并用于预测耳声发射行为的各个方面。
