Basic dynamics from a pulse-coupled network of autonomous integrate-and-fire chaotic circuits.
This paper studies basic dynamics from a novel pulse-coupled network (PCN). The unit element of the PCN is an integrate-and-fire circuit (IFC) that exhibits chaos. We an give an iff condition for the chaos generation. Using two IFC, we construct a master-slave PCN. It exhibits interesting chaos synchronous phenomena and their breakdown phenomena. We give basic classification of the phenomena and their existence regions can be elucidated in the parameter space. We then construct a ring-type PCN and elucidate that the PCN exhibits interesting grouping phenomena based on the chaos synchronization patterns. Using a simple test circuit, some of typical phenomena can be verified in the laboratory.
