T. Kanamaru et al., Theoretical analysis of array-enhanced stochastic resonance in the diffusively coupled FitzHugh-Nagumo equation - art. no. 031908, PHYS REV E, 6403(3), 2001, pp. 1908
The array-enhanced stochastic resonance (AESR) in the diffusively coupled F
itzHugh-Nagumo equation is investigated. The two properties of AESR, namely
, the scaling of the optimal noise intensity and the enhancement of the max
imum value of the correlation coefficient as a function of the coupling str
ength, are analyzed theoretically. By transforming the dynamics of N elemen
ts into that of the mean and the deviation from it, it is found that AESR i
s caused by the correlation between them. A low-dimensional model that repr
oduces the above properties is constructed.
