Abstract

In the present work, we present a new method for assessing causality in uni-directionally coupled chaotic oscillators with small frequency mismatch. This method is based on the correlation between changes in the phase dynamics of the slave oscillator and the dynamics of the phase difference between the oscillators. Application of the proposed approach to master-slave R¨ossler systems showed that the new algorithm is well-suited for assessing the presence and direction of coupling, especially in the case of weak coupling.
