A Transmission-Line-Based Cochlear Standing Wave Model To Elucidate Mechanism of Human Auditory System

Abstract— How do people hear sounds? As a counterpart of Prof. G. V. Békésy's traveling wave theory, we have proposed resonance theory of outer hair cells and cochlear standing wave theory, respectively. Based on these proposals, this paper develops a transmission-line-based cochlear standing wave model. Since the macroscopic cochlear model is designed as it looks like, various auditory physiology can be explained. Transient analyses with pure-tone excitation and Gaussian pulse excitation are carried out, and Prof. D. Kemp's otoacoustic emission (OAE) is demonstrated successfully. Clinical Relevance— Our new model has a great potential to explain auditory physiology including structural inner disorders, hearing loss, and even tinnitus.
