Abstract
Non‐technical summary Neural activity in parts of the cerebral cortex related to movement oscillates at frequencies around 20 Hz. These oscillations are correlated with similar rhythms in contracting muscles on the opposite side of the body. In this work, we used an analysis method called directed coherence to investigate the direction of oscillatory coupling. We find that oscillations travel not only from cortex to muscle (as expected for a motor command), but also back from muscle to cortex (reflecting sensory input). This oscillatory loop may allow the cortex to measure features of the limb state, integrating sensory inflow with the motor command.
