We studied the motion of an underdamped Brownian particle in a periodic potential subject to a harmonic excitation and a colored noise. The average input energy per period and the phase lag are calculated to quantify the phenomenon of stochastic resonance (SR). The numerical results show that...

Here we present a study of stochastic resonance (SR) in an extended FitzHugh–Nagumo system with a field dependent activator diffusion. We show that the system response (here measured through the output signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)) is enhanced due to the particular form of the non-homogeneous...

Stochastic resonance (SR) induced by the signal modulation is investigated, by introducing the signal-modulated gain into a single-mode laser system. Using the linear approximation method, we detailedly calculate the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of a gain-noise model of the single-mode laser,...

We introduce a simple model of opinion dynamics in which a two-state agent modified Sznajd model evolves due to the simultaneous action of stochastic driving and a periodic signal. The stochastic effect mimics a social temperature, so the agents may adopt decisions in support for or against some...

Bistable system is a typical model in stochastic resonance (SR) researching. And it has been known that the deterministic dynamics of a noised system plays an important role in making SR phenomena occur. By embedding a non-autonomous system onto a cylinder, or extending the one-dimensional...

A stochastic resonator constructed of three discrete states is proposed to explain microscopically why one applies the Arrhenius-type relaxation time to the time scale of thermal relaxation of each two-state kinetic Ising spin in previous papers which have studied stochastic resonance using...

We study the stochastic resonance phenomenon in saturating dynamical models of neural signal transduction, at the synaptic stage, wherein the noise in multipathways enhances the processing of neuronal information integrated by excitatory and inhibitory synaptic currents. For an excitatory...

The stochastic resonance in a bias monostable system subject to frequency mixing force and multiplicative and additive noise is investigated. Based on the adiabatic elimination theory, the analytic expressions of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for the fundamental and higher harmonics are...

We study a periodically driven (symmetric as well as asymmetric) double-well potential system at finite temperature. We show that mean heat loss by the system to the environment (bath) per period of the applied field is a good quantifier of stochastic resonance. It is found that the heat...

Stochastic resonance (SR) has become a well-known phenomenon that can enhance weak periodic signals with the help of noise. SR is an interesting phenomenon when applied to signal processing. Although it has been proven that SR does not always improve the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), in a...
