Abstract :
In this work, a novel coupled system of simple Piecewise Constant Oscillators is considered. The oscillator consists of two linear capacitors, two nonlinear voltage controlled current soureces (abbr. VCCSs) with hysteresis characteristic and one nonlinear VCCS with Signum-like characteristic. The two oscillators are coupled by a hysteresis VCCS. This system exhibits synchronization phenomena of in-phase and anti-phase and their co-existence. We provide analytical results and typical phenomena are verified by laboratory measurements.
