Bandpass noise pitch corresponds to spectral edge frequencies which fuse when close

Evidence

Summarizing the results in a simplified form, it can be stated that bandpass noise produces pitches that correspond to the frequencies of the spectral edges. If the spectral edges are close together, the two edge pitches fuse to a single pitch corresponding to the centre frequency of the narrow-band noise. — Professor Dr.-Ing.
