Concern: Is the shape of the power spectrum determined only by our applied stimulus?
A “black box” modeling approach will relate the ventilatory
response to the applied CO2 stimulus
FiCO2
This approach provides a means of assessing stability of
feedback control of ventilation in individual subjects

Apply FICO2, measure resulting VE, and estimate transfer function
(or impulse response) of the “black box”.

Limitations: (i) vascular geometry is more complex; (ii) gas exchange with
arterioles/venules not represented
