چکیده

A well-designed free-running oscillator provides a periodic signal of constant amplitude and frequency fo from the energy delivered by direct-current (dc) sources. This has an immediate application for the realization of local oscillators used in the frequency-conversion stages of communication systems [1]. In receivers, the modulated signal at radio-frequency (RF) fRF is mixed with the output of a local oscillator at fo, selecting the intermodulation product that corresponds to the frequency difference fIF = fRF − fo, This allows down-conversion of the carrier frequency from fRF to fIF. An analogous procedure is followed in transmitters. The intermediate frequency fIF is mixed with the output of the local oscillator, selecting the intermodulation product fRF = fIF + fo. This allows up-conversion of the carrier frequency. The free-running oscillator is usually inserted into a phase-locked loop for this application [2]. A single oscillator having dc sources only is said to operate in free-running mode. However, other forms of behavior are possible. In injection-locked operation [3], the oscillation is synchronized with an independent periodic source, which means that the oscillation frequency, influenced by the input source, becomes equal to the input frequency fo = fin, with a constant phase shift between the oscillation and the input signal. The injection-locked mode is used for phase noise reduction, frequency division, or phase shifting. In coupled operation, several oscillators are interconnected by means of linear coupling networks [4] and oscillate in a synchronous manner. Coupled-oscillator systems can be used for power combination

Frequency–driven chaos in the electrical circuit of Duffing-Holmes oscillator and its control

Accurate detection of weak periodic signals within noise and possibility of secure messaging have made Duffing oscillator (DO) highly important in the field of communication. Investigation on the properties of DO is thus ardently sought for. An elegant approach to accomplish the same is to fabricate electronic circuit simulating DO non-linear equation and to study the effect of input signal amp...

Classical versus quantum dynamics for a driven relativistic oscillator

We compare the time evolution of the quantum-mechanical spatial probability density obtained by solving the time-dependent Dirac equation with its classical counterpart obtained from the relativistic Liouville equation for the phase-space density in a regime in which the dynamics is essentially relativistic. For a resonantly driven one-dimensional harmonic oscillator, the simplest nontrivial mo...

Chaos in the Quantum Double Well Oscillator: The Ehrenfest View Revisited

We treat the double well quantum oscillator from the standpoint of the Ehrenfest equation but in a manner different from Pattanayak and Schieve. We show that for short times there can be chaotic motion due to quantum fluctuations, but over sufficiently long times the behaviour is normal. It is generally agreed that the full quantum dynamics does not exhibit chaos. For systems which exhibit chao...

Torus breakdown and noise-induced dynamics in the randomly driven Morse oscillator

Strictly, the KAM torus no longer exists for a randomly driven Hamiltonian system. We firstly investigate the process of torus breakdown in the randomly driven Morse oscillator by transforming the original system into another one in action-angle variables and introducing the specific Poincaré map by Makarov et al. Though the strength of random perturbations is large, some thick closedlike curve...

Quantum signatures of chaos in the dynamics of a trapped ionJ

We show how a nonlinear chaotic system, the parametrically kicked nonlinear oscillator, may be realised in the dynamics of a trapped, laser-cooled ion, interacting with a sequence of standing wave pulses. Unlike the original optical scheme G. trapped ion enables strongly quantum dynamics with minimal dissipation. This should permit an experimental test of one of the quantum signatures of chaos;...

Oscillator clustering in a resource distribution chain.

The paper investigates the special clustering phenomena that one can observe in systems of nonlinear oscillators that are coupled via a shared flow of primary resources (or a common power supply). This type of coupling, which appears to be quite frequent in nature, implies that one can no longer separate the inherent dynamics of the individual oscillator from the properties of the coupling netw...
