Side peak suppression in responses of an across-frequency integration model to stimuli of varying bandwidth as demonstrated analytically and by implementation.

Multiplication-like sound localization models are subjected to phase ambiguities for high-frequency tonal stimuli as multiplication creates several equivalent response peaks in tuning curves. By increasing the bandwidth of the stimulus, phase ambiguities can be reduced, which is often referred to as side peak suppression. In this study we present a Jeffress-based sound localization model, and determine side peak suppression analytically.
