Estimation of Stapedius-Muscle Activation using Ear Canal Absorbance Measurements : An Application of Signal Processing in Physiological Acoustics

The stapedius muscle, which is located in the middle ear, goes into contraction when the ear is exposed to high sound intensities. This muscle activation is called ‘the acoustic reflex’. Measurement of the acoustic reflex is clinically of importance since it can reveal diagnostic information about t...
