On the basis of the spatial summation properties of their receptive fields, cat retinal ganglion cells were classified as either X-cells (linear) or Y-cells (non-linear).

Receptive fields of cat retinal ganglion cells were stimulated by a drifting sinusoidal luminance pattern of fixed (50%) contrast and the amplitude of the fundamental frequency component of response was determined as a function of spatial frequency. Frequency response functions for most cells were u
