CHAOTIC AND REGULAR DYNAMICS OF AUTONOMOUS OSCILLATION SYSTEMS WITH AP-N-JUNCTION

Stochastization due to overlapping and destruction of nonlinear resona nces is investigated in a model of a self-matched oscillation system w ith two resonators, one of which is nonlinear due to the capacitance o f a p-n junction. An increase in the gain of the active element, in th e case of weak coupling between the resonators, is shown to result in alternation of the zones of chaos and regular motion. The period of th e regular oscillations successively increases from zone to zone follow ing the integer law. In the case of a sufficiently strong coupling, on ly chaotic oscillations occur in the system, and their intensity incre ases with the increasing gain of the active element. An experimental p rototype of a microwave transistor oscillator with a varactor is propo sed and investigated. The theoretical and experimental models are comp ared.
