Forced Synchronization of Central Pattern Generator of the Van Der Pol Oscillator With an Additional Feedback Loop

This paper is dedicated to the study of the forced synchronization in van der Pol oscillator with an additional oscillatory circuit. The external signal is A cos ωt whose frequency is close to the natural frequency of the oscillator. Methods of the bifurcation analysis were used to construct the synchronization regions in parameter space. We show that strategies of control of central pattern generator based on the two-mode van der Pol oscillator can be developed using the variation of external influence.
