Control of noise-induced coherent behaviors in an array of excitable elements by time-delayed feedback
1Department of Applied Physics, Fukuoka University, Fukuoka 814-0180, Japan.
Abstract:
We investigate feedback-controlled coherent dynamics in a two-dimensional array of excitable elements. We demonstrate that one can freely enhance or reduce the spatiotemporal coherence of noise-induced oscillation, such as coherence resonance and phase synchronization, by controlling both the delay time and the feedback gain. Furthermore, we find that noise-induced oscillations are entrained by the feedback force in a certain range of the delay time. Experimental observations are approximately reproduced in a numerical simulation with a forced Oregonator model.

Feedback control systems
Linear feedback systems are theoretical models that simplify analysis and design. These systems operate under the principle that their output is directly proportional to their input within certain ranges. For instance, an amplifier in a control system behaves linearly as long as the input signal remains within a specific range. However, most physical systems exhibit inherent nonlinearity...
