Abstract
The entorhinal cortex (EC) plays a pivotal role for spatial representation and navigation in rat. Understanding how information is processed in the entorhinal cortex is essential to help us know the self-motion-based navigation. This article introduces the connection of entorhinal cortex and hippocampus, main cells in entorhinal cortex and their interactions, then put forward one model of the entorhinal cortex. The structure of this model is consistent with head direction cells and grid cells in entorhinal cortex, simulating grid cells firing fields very well.
