We suggest a spatially local feedback mechanism for stabilizing period
ic orbits in spatially extended systems. Our method, which is based on
a comparison between present and past states of the system, does not
require the external generation of an ideal reference state and can su
ppress both absolute and convective instabilities. As an example, we a
nalyze the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation in one dimension, showing
how the time-delay feedback enlarges the stability domain for travelin
g waves.
