Summary:
In this study, we conduct a laboratory experiment on a coupled bistable oscillator system for experimental observation of propagating wave phenomena. As a result, we confirm the existence of two different propagating waves in an actual circuit. To compare these propagating waves with our previous work, some numerical results are also given. Moreover, we observe switching solutions that coexist with the propagating waves in the real circuit.
