%breebaart2001_eicell  Excitation-inhibition cell computation for the Breebaart model
%   Usage: y = breebaart2001_eicell(insig,fs,tau,ild)
%
%   Input parameters:
%        insig	   : input signal, must be an [n by 2] matrix
%        fs        : sampling rate of input signal
%        tau       : characteristic delay in seconds (positive: left is leading)
%        ild       : characteristic ILD in dB (positive: left is louder)
%
%   Output parameters:
%        y	   : EI-type cell output as a function of time
%
%   BREEBAART2001_EICELL(insig,fs,tau,ild) compute the excitation-inhibition model on
%   the input signal insig.  The cell to be modelled responds to a delay
%   tau (measured in seconds) and interaural-level difference ild*
%   measured in dB.
%
%   BREEBAART2001_EICELL takes the following optional parameters:
%  
%     'tc',tc      Temporal smoothing constant. Default value is 30e-3.
%
%     'rc_a',rc_a  Parameter a for dynamic range compression.
%                  Default value is a=.1.
%
%     'rc_b',rc_b  Parameter b for dynamic range compression.
%                  Default value is b=0.00002.
%
%     'ptau',ptau  Time constant for p(tau) function. Default value is 2.2e-3.
