The stochastic resonance (SR) characteristics of a single bistable system and two bistable systems connected in series with small and large parameters have been investigated, respectively. The viewpoint is that a single bistable system is better than a cascaded bistable system in detecting a weak periodic signal in frequency domain, and that, in time field, a cascaded system can detect a more beautiful waveform of either a periodic or an aperiodic weak signal. However, for some detection of a special signal, the periodic pulse for instance, a single bistable system is of great benefit to the signal extraction in time domain. It can provide some important information properties that are hardly obtained in frequency spectrum. Two examples of detecting a weak signal embedded in strong noise are presented in the end to illustrate that a single bistable system and a cascaded bistable system are both powerful tools for signal processing.
