Abstract

We propose a new simple model of the half-center oscillator (HCO) consists of two oscillatory neurons interacting via the inhibitory coupling. We found the regions of dynamics, typical for central pattern generators, in the parameter space of the model. Various bifurcation transitions between all these states are in the focus of the proposed study.
