Abstract :
In this study, wave propagation phenomena of phase differences observed in van der Pol oscillators coupled by inductors as a ladder are investigated. We deduce that the behavior of the phase-waves generated by a phase difference of a positive value is different from those generated by a phase difference of a negative value. We analyze in detail the difference between generated phase-waves of positive and negative values.
