Stochastic Resonance and Its Precursors

  • Chapter
Fluctuations and Order

Part of the book series: Institute for Nonlinear Science ((INLS))

  • 196 Accesses

Abstract

We review some basic theoretical ideas and revealing experimental observations on stochastic resonance, a phenomenon in which the signal and/or signal-to-noise ratio in a nonlinear system increases with increasing intensity of noise. These ideas and results are related to those known from earlier work in condensed matter physics.
