NOISE-ENHANCED WAVE TRAIN PROPAGATION IN UNEXCITABLE MEDIA

Abstract

The influence of spatiotemporal colored noise on wave train propagation in nonexcitable media is investigated. This study has been performed within the framework of the Oregonator model in terms of the characteristic noise parameters. Some features seen in single front propagation, like noise induced propagation facilitation for an optimal level of the noise intensity, are also found for periodic wave trains. The main new effect is, however, an enhancement of propagation for correlation times of the noise of the order of the period of the wave train.
