Survey on Two-Port Network-Based Fractional-Order Oscillators

This chapter merges the fractional calculus and two-port networks in oscillator design. The fractional-order elements α and β add extra degrees of freedom that increase the design flexibility and frequency band while providing control over the phase difference. A prototype of the fractional-order two-port network oscillators is introduced. It consists of a general two-port network and three

Study of fractional flux-controlled memristor emulator connections

In this paper, the series and parallel connections of the fractional flux-controlled memristors are studied. Asymmetric I-V hysteresis with high I-V nonlinearity can be obtained from single fractional memristor as reported in literature. However, connecting different memristor emulators can convert the asymmetric hysteresis to symmetric one and maintaining the high I-V nonlinearity to be used in
