locking MSF by external force in system
with dynamical intermittency

Recently the new phenomenon of the locking of the mean switching frequency (MSF) by external periodic force was found [1]. This phenomenon is as follows: there is an interval of noise intensities in which the MSF remains constant and coincides with the frequency of the force. The phenomenon of the locking of the mean switching frequency was proved experimentally by classical model of the Schmitt trigger having noise-induced switching. Qualitatively, the same phenomenon has been observed for the overdamped bistable oscillator.

We investigate the possibility of the realization of the similar effect in chaotic bistable system without external noise. In this case the statistical properties of the transitions between states are exclusively determinated the natural nonlinear dynamics of the system. The object of the investigation is the nonautonomous Chua's circuit where there is regim generalized bistability (attractor Double-Scroll). The random switching process is investigated numerically via the "two-state" dynamics method. This process can be characterized by the probability density p(t) of the switching periods between states and, therefore, by some mean switching frequency tex2html_wrap_inline3254 . In autonomous Chua's circuit MSF tex2html_wrap_inline3254 depends on the two parameters tex2html_wrap_inline2596 and tex2html_wrap_inline3260 . Let us fix parameter tex2html_wrap_inline3262 . Then the dynamics of the autonomous system is determined by the value of parameter tex2html_wrap_inline2596 . The dependences of MSF versus parameter tex2html_wrap_inline2596 for different values of amplitudes and frequencies of the external force are considerated.

In the result of numerical analysis of the nonautonomous Chua's circuit in the "chaos-chaos" type intermittency regime the following conclusions can be made:

- The irregular dependences of the MSF versus parameter tex2html_wrap_inline2596 for relatively large amplitudes of the periodic force are observed as well as it has been shown in [1]. There is an interval of the parameter tex2html_wrap_inline2596 in which MSF is closed to forcing frequency. The size of the intervals is increased when amplitude and frequency of the force are rised.

- If one supposes that MSF is equal to the forcing frequency within the bound of some accuracy then we may talk about effect of the locking of the mean switching frequency by external periodic force in a sense introduced in [1].
