Time-delayed feedback control of coherence resonance near subcritical Hopf bifurcation: theory versus experiment

Chaos. 2015 Mar;25(3):033111. doi: 10.1063/1.4915066.

Abstract

Using the model of a generalized Van der Pol oscillator in the regime of subcritical Hopf bifurcation, we investigate the influence of time delay on noise-induced oscillations. It is shown that for appropriate choices of time delay, either suppression or enhancement of coherence resonance can be achieved. Analytical calculations are combined with numerical simulations and experiments on an electronic circuit.
