LFP spectral properties during the goal-directed task. (a) Illustration of the event window, which is marked by a colored line. TBS, turning begin sensor; TES, turning end sensor. (b) Diagram showing the microelectrode array and implanting location. (c) Time-frequency representation of a single electrode (top) and all the electrodes averaged (down) during a single trial. (d) Averaged time-frequency representation across all the trials for turning left, moving forward, and turning right. (e) Examples of LFP waveforms during a trial. (f) Example of the power spectrum of a typical recording channel in the turning area (−3 s to TES, dashed line) and the waiting area (3 s before the gate opened, solid line) in all trials (). (g) Mean relative power of all trials in the gamma-band (4060 Hz) for all six pigeons.
