SIG_WHITENOISEBURST
Burst of white noise

Usage:

sig = sig_whitenoiseburst(fs);

Input parameters:

fs Sampling frequency of stimulus (in Hz).

Output parameters:

sig Pressure waveform of the stimulus sampled at fs.

Description:

sig_whitenoiseburst generates a burst of white noise bandpass-filtered between 125 Hz and 20 kHz. The burst consists of the 700-ms noise embedded in 150-ms silence each at the beginning and the end. The total signal duration is 1 second. Further, the noise burst is ramped with a 20-ms ramp.

This signal is used in in the binaural model to predict the perceived direction, see Wierstorf et al. (2013).
