Wave propagation in excitable media provides an important example of spatiotemporal self-organization. The Belousov–Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction and the impulse propagation along nerve axons are two well-known examples of this phenomenon. Excitable media have been modelled by continuous partial differential equations and by discrete cellular automata. Here we describe a simple three-states cellular automaton model based on the properties of excitation and recovery that are essential to excitable media. Our model is able to reproduce the dynamics of patterns observed in excitable media.

Wave dynamics in the coupled FitzHugh–Nagumo oscillators with pacemaker defects is studied. It is found that with increasing the coupling strength, the lattice experiences a dynamical transition from a local wave to the global propagation. For large enough coupling, a transition from global wave propagation to the propagation failure can be observed. Noise-enhanced wave propagation in the propagation-failure regime is revealed.
