Facts (generated by robot; please edit if you find it inaccurate)

  • Sound frequency is one parameter that crickets use to discriminate between conspecific signals and sounds made by predators, yet little is known about how frequency is represented at the level of auditory receptors.
  • Soundfrequency is often in the thousands, so we might refer to kiloHertz, (kHz) whenwe mean 1000 Hz.
  • That is, the controller 102 determines if a particular sound frequency is predominant within the ambient noise, and identifies such a frequency if present.
  • The highest useful sound frequency is equal to half the sampling rate.
  • Al- though analysis of sound frequency is important in many insect groups, this problem, and in particular its relationship to behavior, has been studied most thoroughly in Ensifera, a suborder of Orthoptera that includes katydids (Tettigoniidae) and crickets (Gryllidae).
