    Abstract
    The multi-channel cochlear implant codes sounds on the bases of rate and place pitch. Experimental studies on animals and patients have shown it is difficult for electrical stimulation to code rate pitch above about 200-400 pulses/second. Therefore to convey as much information about speech as possible it is necessary to produce multi-channel stimulation or place pitch so that the important frequency cues in vowels and consonants can be perceived by the patient.
