Extended SC-CNN implementation of the Hindmarsh-Rose neuron

In this paper an extended state-controlled cellular neural network (SC-CNN) based design of the Hindmarsh-Rose neuron is presented. In particular, both the simplicity and low cost characteristic of the realisation are emphasised. Experimental series of this circuit are examined; either spiking-bursting behaviour or beating activity are observed for different values of a circuit parameter corresponding to a physical DC current in the biological model. Moreover, the implementation of the flexor-extensor central pattern generator with the presented Hindmarsh-Rose neuron design is examined.
