Abstract: A fluctuating oscillator includes: an adder that has an input terminal to which an input signal including a main signal and an uncorrelated signal that is uncorrelated with the main signal and is higher in frequency than the main signal is input, and adds a feedback signal to the input signal; a threshold discrimination unit that generates a pulse signal by comparing an addition signal added by the adder with a threshold; a transient response unit that generates an output signal by transiently responding the generated pulse signal; and a feedback loop that feeds back the output signal to the adder as the feedback signal.

Abstract: A fluctuating oscillator includes: a processor including a digital circuit, and the processor includes a random variable generation unit that generates a random variable, a lookup table that stores a waveform signal in advance, a computation unit that imparts fluctuation to the waveform signal based on the waveform signal read from the lookup table, the random variable generated by the random variable generation unit, and a pulse signal to be fed back, a threshold discrimination unit that generates a pulse signal by comparing a fluctuating signal output from the computation unit with a predetermined threshold, and a feedback loop that causes the pulse signal to be fed back to the computation unit.

Abstract: An adder adds a noise signal, an input signal, and a feedback signal. A threshold determination unit compares an addition signal output from the adder with a predetermined threshold, and outputs an ignition pulse signal. A transient response unit causes transient response of the ignition pulse signal, and generates an output signal. An intensity adjustment unit is formed of a variable resistor provided on a feedback loop, adjusts intensity of the feedback signal, and inputs the feedback signal to the adder.

Abstract: Four stochastic resonators 20-1 to 20-4 outputting a pulse signal in accordance with a stochastic resonance phenomenon are unidirectionally coupled in a ring-like form to constitute a fluctuation oscillator 10. When a signal output from each of the stochastic resonators 20-1 to 20-4 is successively transmitted in the stochastic resonators 20-1 to 20-4 coupled in a ring-like form, the output timings at each stochastic resonator 20 are synchronized with each other due to a cooperation phenomenon between the stochastic resonators 20-1 to 20-4, so that each stochastic resonator 20 is self-excited to oscillate at a constant period of time.
