Abstract
In this paper we will present a computational model of area CA3b in Hippocampus and through simulations show that this system is capable of sustaining a rhythm without any external input using only a small portion of its population.The model proposed here was devised using the biological data available on CA3. Our simulations have shown that the rhythmic emergent behaviour is sustainable and that we can alter its characteristics (i.e. spectrum) by altering the overall physical characteristics of the network such as the overall size of the structure itself or the extent of the connectivity field.
