%VICENTE2020_INTERNALNOISE calculates internal noise level
% Usage: [IN_L,IN_R] = vicente2020_internalnoise(fc,f0,Aud_L,Aud_R,N,B,Nlim,eta,max_OHC)
%
% Input parameters:
% fc : center frequency of the model (vector)
% f0 : audiometric frequency vector
% Aud : left or right hearing thresholds @ f0
% N : Noise level (scalar or vector)
% B : Parameter of the internal noise defining the internal noise floor
% Nlim : Parameter of the internal noise defining at which the internal noise level starts to increase with the external noise level
% eta : defining the percentage of hearing threshold elevation due to OHC loss
% max_OHC : maximum allowed for OHC loss
%
% Output parameters:
% InternalNoise : Left/Right internal noise level @ model center frequency
% IN_MaskerLevelDependentPart : Left/Right external noise level dependent part of the internal noise level @ model center frequency
% Gamma : Transformation to convert dB HL into dB SPL @ model center frequency
%
% VICENTE2020_INTERNALNOISE simulates the internal noise based on the input audiograms
% by calculating the IHC and OHC loss, taking into account the
% external noise level.
