Abstract :
We present new results on the synthesis of globally stable limit cycles in networks of passive oscillators. These passive oscillators can be represented as a modified multi- input-multi-output (MIMO) Lure´ system that is dissipative with respect to a certain supply rate. We use KS multipliers to establish the conditions under which the system undergoes either Hopf bifurcation or a pitchfork bifurcation. Under these conditions the network exhibits oscillations. Our results are applicable to networks of non-identical oscillators so long as the each oscillator is a passive oscillator.
