Abstract
A method for measuring an electrophysiologic response of a sensory system includes stimulating the sensory system with a first stimulus train having stimuli temporally separated from each other by a first inter-stimulus interval and simultaneously stimulating the sensory system with a second stimulus train having stimuli temporally separated from each other by a second inter-stimulus interval different from the first inter-stimulus interval. A response signal is then sampled at a first frequency corresponding to the first inter-stimulus interval, thereby obtaining a first response train. The first response train is then processed to suppress a contaminant caused by the second stimulus train.
