Synaptic symmetry increases coherence in a pair of excitable electronic neurons.

We study how the synaptic connections in a pair of excitable electronic neurons affect the coherence of their spike trains when the neurons are submitted to noise from independent sources. The coupling is provided by electronic circuits which mimic the dynamics of chemical AMPA synapses. In particul...
