Stochastic resonance in multi-scale bistable array

Abstract This Letter explores a new mechanism of stochastic resonance (SR) that is induced by the multi-scale noise decomposed from the input signal, which is promising in signal detection and processing under heavy background noise. The input signal is firstly decomposed to multi-scale signals by orthogonal wavelet transform. Then, the approximate signal, which contains the driving signal, is processed by an uncoupled parallel bistable array with the detailed signal of each scale as the internal noise. At last, a SR mechanism combining the effects of colored noise and array SR is proposed. The simulation results show that a high quality output signal can be obtained by the new mechanism. The proposed model is more adaptive to input signal with high noise intensity than single bistable SR system, which can be seen from the signal-to-noise ratio curves and average noise intensity curves.
