We present a new kind of stochastic resonance effect in a system witho
ut periodic external force, but perturbed by a multiplicative colored
noise. The phenomenon, obtained as a function of the correlation time
of the noise instead of the usually considered noise intensity, occurs
in a discrete system with a Hopf bifurcation, but could also be obser
ved in a wide range of discrete and continuous models with similar bif
urcation behavior.
