A network of relaxation oscillators based on intermittently coupled capacitors

چکیده
This paper presents N binary hysteresis relaxation oscillators connected by the Intermittently Coupled Capacitors. The network exhibits various interesting synchronous phenomena. As a powerful analysis tool, we derive a hybrid return map which has one real and N binary states. Using this map, the stability of the periodic synchronization can be analyzed simply by the binary states: it is not necessary to check the real state. Then we classify basic phenomena in a bifurcation diagram. Typical phenomena are verified in the laboratory.

Synchronization of a network of intermittently coupled capacitor circuits
This paper studies synchronous phenomena of a network of N relaxation oscillators. The network is constructed by intermittently coupled capacitors. In order to analyze the phenomena, we introduce a hybrid return map of one real and N binary variables. We analyze basic synchronous phenomena and clarify their occurrence rates for initial values.
متن کاملOn a Network of Chaotic Oscillators by Intermittently Coupled Capacitors
This paper studies a network of chaotic oscillators connected by intermittently coupled capacitors (ICCs). The unit oscillator includes a capacitor and a binary hysteresis element with periodic thresholds. ICCs imply periodic and impulsive connection of the capacitors selected one by one from each cell. In order to analyze the ICC network, we provide the hybrid return map (HRM) with one real an...
متن کاملApplication of Coupled Neural Oscillators for Image Texture Segmentation and Modeling of Biological Rhythms
The role of relaxation oscillator models in application fields such as modeling dynamic systems and image analysis is discussed. A short review of the Van der Pol, Wilson-Cowan and Terman-Wang relaxation oscillators is given. The key property of such nonlinear oscillators, i.e., the oscillator phase shift (called the Phase Response Curve) as a result of external pulse stimuli is indicated as a ...
متن کاملA New Solution to Analysis of CMOS Ring Oscillators
New equations are proposed for frequency and amplitude of a ring oscillator. The method is general enough to be used for all types of delay stages. Using exact largesignal circuit analysis, closed form equations for estimating the frequency and amplitude of a high frequency ring oscillator are derived as an example. The method takes into account the effect of various parasitic capacitors to...
متن کاملSlowly Coupled Oscillators: Phase Dynamics and Synchronization
In this paper we extend the results of Frankel and Kiemel [SIAM J. Appl. Math, 53 (1993), pp. 1436–1446] to a network of slowly coupled oscillators. First, we use Malkin’s theorem to derive a canonical phase model that describes synchronization properties of a slowly coupled network. Then, we illustrate the result using slowly coupled oscillators (1) near Andronov–Hopf bifurcations, (2) near sa...
