Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to biomedical engineering technology, in particular to an FPGA-based experimental platform for neuron random response and resonance under electrical stimulation. Background technique [0002] In the nervous system, noise acts on the action potentials of neurons. The traditional idea is that noise is unfavorable to the transmission of information between neurons. However, studies have shown that random noise of appropriate intensity can effectively improve the ability of excitable neurons to respond to and process external stimulus signals. The main reason is that noise triggers stochastic resonance in the nervous system. With the in-depth study of stochastic resonance, researchers have found that not only Gaussian noise can have a positive effect on bistable systems, but also other signals, such as chaotic signals or high-frequency periodic stimulation. The vibration resonance phenomenon can be produced by using high-frequency pe...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] The existing technology is still in the basic stage, so there are still the following shortcomings: there is no FPGA-based dedicated neuron resonance phenomenon and electromagnetic field stimulation experimental platform with complete functions; the hardware simulation neuron model implemented by FPGA has a relatively simple structure and low precision ; The man-machine interface is not yet perfect, and real-time control operation and data analysis cannot be performed. Therefore, it is difficult to analyze the dynamic characteristics of FPGA hardware neurons.
