Abstract

Weak electrical coupling connections are ubiquitous in neuronal system. In this paper, we examine the effect of time delays on the synchronization properties of the weakly coupled neuronal oscillators by means of phase-model reduction. The bifurcation analysis clarifies how the time delays affect the existence and stability of in-phase, anti-phase and out of phase synchronization states. The results show that time delay can promote synchronization in an efficient way.
