Abstract :
The human electroretinogram (ERG) was analyzed for white noise and sinusoidal stimuli. The frequency response function calculated for white noise stimuli matched the Bode plot obtained using sinusoidal stimuli. Similaly, the second-order kernel accurately predicted the second harmonic of the measured sine wave responses.
