We aim to enhance the ability of coupled phase oscillators to maintain synchronization under stochastic disturbances by proposing an optimization method. We model the disturbances as Gaussian noise and measure synchronization stability using mean first hitting time. The optimization method increases the mean first hitting time and identifies vulnerable edges in the system, increasing synchronization stability.
We aim to increase the ability of coupled phase oscillators to maintain synchronization when the system is affected by stochastic disturbances. We model the disturbances by Gaussian noise and use the mean first hitting time when the state hits the boundary of a secure domain, that is a subset of the basin of attraction, to measure synchronization stability. Based on the invariant probability distribution of a system of phase oscillators subject to Gaussian disturbances, we propose an optimization method to increase the mean first hitting time and, thus, increase synchronization stability. In this method, a new metric for synchronization stability is defined as the probability of the state being absent from the secure domain, which reflects the impact of all the system parameters and the strength of disturbances. Furthermore, by this new metric, one may identify those edges that may lead to desynchronization with a high risk. A case study shows that the mean first hitting time is dramatically increased after solving corresponding optimization problems, and vulnerable edges are effectively identified. It is also found that optimizing synchronization by maximizing the order parameter or the phase cohesiveness may dramatically increase the value of the metric and decrease the mean first hitting time, thus decrease synchronization stability.
