Abstract

Desynchronization is a powerful tool to achieve round-robin scheduling, which is crucial in applications as diverse as media access control of communication networks, realization of analog-to-digital converters, and scheduling of traffic flows in intersections. Due to the remarkable scalability and simplicity, pulse-coupled oscillators based desynchronization is receiving increased attention. In this paper, we systematically characterize pulse-coupled oscillators based decentralized phase desynchronization and propose an interaction function that is more general than the existing results. Numerical simulations show that the proposed pulse-based interaction function also has better robustness to pulse losses, time delays, and frequency errors than the existing results.
