We consider a network of nodes connected via gap junctions (electrical synapses). The coupling may have a time constant delay that represents the time of propagation of the signal along nodes, for example, along dendritesand axons [2, 3]. We analyze the subthreshold response of the above described network to a periodic input. We focus on the response to time oscillatory inputs with different frequencies and representative delay times.
