Abstract
The critical-band rate as well as the critical bandwidth are functions of frequency. These dependencies have been given in table form. For effective use of these values in computers, relatively simple equations are given to express the dependence of critical-band rate on frequency with an accuracy better than 0.2 Bark and that of critical bandwidth on frequency with an accuracy better than 10% over the whole auditory range.
