Abstract

Four stochastic resonators-to-outputting a pulse signal in accordance with a stochastic resonance phenomenon are unidirectionally coupled in a ring-like form to constitute a fluctuation oscillator. When a signal output from each of the stochastic resonators-to-is successively transmitted in the stochastic resonators-to-coupled in a ring-like form, the output timings at each stochastic resonatorare synchronized with each other due to a cooperation phenomenon between the stochastic resonators-to-, so that each stochastic resonatoris self-excited to oscillate at a constant period of time.
