BackgroundCross-frequency coupling (CFC) occurs when non-identical frequency components entrain one another. A ubiquitous example from neuroscience is low frequency phase to high frequency amplitude coupling in electrophysiological signals. Seminal work by Canolty revealed CFC in human ECoG data. Established methods band-pass the data into component frequencies then convert the band-passed signals into the analytic representation, from which we infer the instantaneous amplitude and phase of each component. Though powerful, such methods resolve signals with respect to time and frequency without addressing the multiresolution problem.
