Hypersensitivity to small signals in a stochastic system with multiplicative colored noise

摘要

Recently we discovered the phenomenon of hypersensitivity to small time-dependent signals in a simple stochastic system, the Kramers oscillator with multiplicative white noise. In the present work we study, theoretically and experimentally with analog simulations, an influence of noise correlation time on hypersensitivity in a nonlinear oscillator with piecewise-linear current-voltage characteristic and multiplicative colored dichotomous noise. We found that the region of hypersensitive behavior is defined by universal scaling index. whereas the specifics of a particular system reveals itself only in the dependence of the above index on system parameters. The dependence of gain factor on noise correlation time is of bell-shaped (resonant) type.
