We show that an extended system operating in the regime of stochastic resonance can act as a short-term memory device. The system under study is a ring of overdamped bistable oscillators coupled directionally, being each also subject to an external source of Gaussian white noise (the noise sources are independent). A single oscillator is driven by an external periodic force, assumed to act only over the time that the signal takes to traverse the whole ring. A traveling wave is then found to be transmitted several times along the ring with a small damping, provided that the driven oscillator operates in a regime close to stochastic resonance. If noise is suppressed from any oscillator of the chain, the traveling wave is immediately damped. The ring is thus found to act as a short-term memory device in which the stored information (one bit, corresponding to the presence or absence of the external driving) is sustained by noise during a characteristic time (Formula presented) © 2001 The American Physical Society. |
