Summary:
Stochastic resonance (SR) enhances system responses by increasing noise. By applying SR to a receiver, a subthreshold signal not receivable by a conventional linear receiver could be received. Previously, we proposed an analysis method of the SR receiver using a comparator, and evaluated its bit error rate performance. The comparator is known as a simple non-dynamical system exhibiting SR. However, a dynamical system can have better performance since it has a memory effect. In this sense, we propose an analysis method of the SR receiver using a Schmitt trigger known as a simple dynamical system, and evaluate its bit error rate performance. A performance comparison of the comparator and the Schmitt trigger is also shown.
