Oscillatory amplification of stochastic resonance in excitable systems

Authors:

Abstract
We study systems which combine both oscillatory and excitable properties, and hence intrinsically possess two internal frequencies, responsible for standard spiking and for small amplitude oscillatory limit cycles (Canard orbits). We show that in such a system the effect of stochastic resonance can be amplified by application of an additional high-frequency signal, which is in resonance with the oscillatory frequency. It is important that for this amplification one needs much lower noise intensities as for conventional stochastic resonance in excitable systems.
