Simulation of Epileptiform Activity Using Network of Neuron-Like Radio Technical Oscillators

A radio-technical scheme of a hierarchical thalamocortical brain network with an external input is developed. Various regimes of induced and self-oscillations (including hard-excitation regime) are revealed in the study of the proposed model. Parameters at which the scheme exhibits activity similar to spike-wave discharges of absence epilepsy are determined, which proves the hypothesis in accordance with which the spike-wave discharge represents a long-term transient process in the vicinity of bifurcation of cycle generation from condensation of phase trajectories.
