Abstract
Autonomous wave sources (AWS) hold a prominent place among the characteristic nonlinear structures in a homogeneous autowave medium. They are regions of finite dimensions where nonstationary motions lead to the generation of TPs. It is well known that there are so-called pacemakers in an inhomogeneous space which are localized regions of a self-sustained oscillatory medium, where the oscillation frequency is higher than anywhere in the surrounding space. The formation of a TP by such sources occurs under any initial conditions.
