Abstract
A fluctuating drive system comprises: random generating means for generating a randomly varying physical quantity; control means for controlling the randomly varying physical quantity; amplifying means for amplifying the controlled physical quantity; and driving means for driving an energy generating means in accordance with the amplified physical quantity, thereby to generate the randomly varying energy from the energy generating means. With this system, the environment or stimulus is positively fluctuated at random with l/f characteristics or the like.
Claims51
A fluctuating drive system comprising:
- random generating means for generating a randomly varying physical quantity in which the proper spectral density for each frequency has a relation ship of 1/f.sup.k (wherein k is a non-zero arbitrary value) to the frequency f and varies at random;
- control means for controlling the randomly varying physical quantity wherein said randomly varying physical quantity has a fluctuating amplitude, a fluctuating frequency range and a mean level;
- control means for controlling the randomly varying physical quantity;
- amplifying means for amplifying the controlled physical quantity;
- energy generating means;
- and
- driving means for driving said energy generating means in accordance with the amplified physical quantity,
- whereby a randomly varying energy is generated from said energy generating means.
