Abstract

This paper and the companion one [Cafagna, D., and Grassi, G., Nonlinear Dynamics, this issue] describe the new phenomenon of chaotic beats in a modified version of the Chua's circuit, driven by two sinusoidal inputs with slightly different frequencies. In particular, this paper presents the circuit design, including a novel implementation of the Chua diode, and investigates the beats phenomenon generated by the considered circuit.
