It was supposed that memory images can be coded by the systems of cyclic brain processes. The dominant frequency in the alpha range about 10 c/s and the typical value of relative refractoriness which follows a neural impulse about 0.01 s determine quantitatively the short-term memory capacity and variable perception delay. Methods of evaluation of both parameters are discussed. The parameters are included into the system of algebraic equations of memory. In total about one hundred subjects participated in the electrophysiological and psychological investigations. The experimental data are in accordance with the theoretical predictions.
