Multiple mechanisms shape FM sweep rate selectivity: complementary or redundant?

Auditory neurons in the inferior colliculus (IC) of the pallid bat have strong rate selective responses to downward frequency modulated (FM) sweeps attributable to the spectrotemporal pattern of their echolocation call (a brief FM pulse). Several mechanisms are known to shape FM rate selectivity wi...
