Hi Tamás, You have two approaches with respect to active delay : 1] Travelling wave delay ... I am not sure where to find accurate delay measurements for the travelling wave point of view ... a good theoretical treatment follows from Shera's work [1] for example. I am sure in that paper you will find references to measurements... 2] Electrical delay measurements ... Wilson gives some detail about this issue [2]. The travelling wave active models assume as much as 12 cycles of delay - perhaps more ? I am going to submit my PhD thesis in the next few months ... it will delve more into the physiological mechanisms of activity.... stay tuned!
