model ECG waveform and the action potentials, generated
in different nodes of human heart [2]. Various arguments
are reported in the literature, for example by Babloyantz
and Destexhe [3], about the fact whether the heart perfectly
behaves like a periodic oscillator or not. It is arguable that
in an actually recorded ECG signal, there might be slight
morphological difference between the consecutive
heartbeats (due to noise or other external stochastic
disturbances like artefacts etc.) which produces chaos-like
random wandering of the states in the phase space [3]. But
there is no doubt that human physiological systems exhibit
some kind of complex periodic waveforms like other
different cardiovascular signals, e.g. respiration, ECG, heart
rate variability (HRV), blood pressure, blood flow etc. [4],
[5], [6], which motivates modeling of such systems using
equivalent coupled oscillators. Representing each of the
physiological oscillations with the corresponding
characteristic frequency, a coupled oscillator model is
developed in Stefanovska et al. [5], [6] for cardiovascular
system in human body. Three ordinary differential equation
based model was proposed by Zbilut et al. [7] to represent
variation in the inter-beat length, although the obtained
signal is not similar to the P-QRS-T complex of an ECG
signal.Balthazar van der Pol’s introduced natural
philosophy in the research lab during the 1920's and
1930's[8-10].The Vdp’s oscillator has been taken into
consideration by different analysts [11-13].Its result has
been computed to high-order[14]and in literature,
synchronization tests have been studied for coupled
oscillators[15-16]. Coupled Vdp's oscillators have been
considered to show numerous complex organic frameworks
[17-19].
The action potentials generated from sino-atrial (SA) and
atrio-ventricular (AV) nodes have been modeled using
mixed VdP/Duffing type relaxation oscillators by
Grudzinski and Zebrowski[20].
For cardiac pacemaker modeling we use Van der Pol
oscillators (Vdp) because the Vdposcillator, given by Eq.(1)
adapts its intrinsic frequency to the frequency of its external
driving signal without changing of its amplitude[21].
Abstract—The paper involves the study of nonlinear
dynamics oscillator and numerical methodology to analyze
and resolute the nonlinear dynamics model. Based on either
the classical Vander Pol oscillator or other nonlinear
oscillators, these models were interesting rather because of the
physical phenomena that could be obtained (chaos and
synchronization).Here, we can simulate many important
physiological features of true physiological action potentials in
practical systems by adjusting the parameter. We also show
different ways to change pacemaker actions. As van der pol
oscillator can model heart beat phenomenon so here these
oscillator models are modified so that they can match well
with the results obtained by actual pacemakers. We model
electrical activity of cardiac electric system including atrial
and ventricular muscles solving a set of coupled nonlinear
oscillator equations. A new mathematical model for the
electrical activity of the heart is proposed. In this paper a
modified Vander Pol oscillator model was designed in order to
reproduce the time series of the action potential generated by
a natural pacemaker of the heart (i.e., the SA or the AV node).
The model represents a special singularly perturbed threedimensional system of ordinary differential equations with one
fast and two slow variables.
Keywords—heartbeat, cardiac pacemaker, van der pol

INTRODUCTION
Mathematical modeling of biological signals is quite
challenging and is an emerging field of research. This
provides better understanding of the underlying physical
phenomena which results in different physiological signals
in human body like Electrocardiogram (ECG),
Electroencephalogram (EEG), Electromiogram (EMG) etc.
[1]. These physiological signals are widely used, over the
years by the clinicians to diagnose irregular behaviour of
human organs. Therefore, mathematical modeling for the
generation of such signals from a system theoretic point of
view may lead us to the root of the complicated
physiological processes, responsible for their generation, to
detect healthy and unhealthy behaviour of human organs.
The fundamental principle behind generation of any
complex biological waveform is governed by few set of
nonlinear differential equations. Several dynamical system
theoretic approaches have been proposed to mathematically

the neuron membrane[24].

saddle cannot be changed so for changing it we modify Eq.

NUMERICAL METHODOLOGY
A. Method of Multiple Scale:
Here method of multiple scales (MMS) is used for
analytical solution of Van der pol oscillators. Ordinary
differential equation changed into a system of partial
differential equations which allows generality to obtain an
perfect approximation with the help of Method of Multiple
scales.

based cardiac pacemaker
Numerical simulations were done using Runge–Kutta
method for solving nonlinear equations on Matlab.Here
Van der pol oscillator equation are implemented in Matlab
and required results are obtain using Runge-Kutta
techniques using Matlab.
Figure 1 describes the flow chart diagram of modified Van
der pol oscillator based cardiac pacemaker. Figure 1 shows
that Van der pol oscillator is used and which is modified in
first part and classical Van der pol oscillator is used in
second part. Modified Van der pol oscillator is analyzed
using Runge Kutta method then its action potential and time
series analysis is generated and observed. Afterwards action
potential is generated and analyzed using classical van der
pol oscillator.

A. By applying Modified Vdp (mVdp) oscillator model
Figures [2-4], show the phase portrait of the modified van
der pol oscillator (mVdp) as mention in Eq. (2). For high
values of µ, systems undergoes a global homoclinic
bifurcation which results in the trajectory ending in the
stable node [25].Figures [2-4] are very similar to blue sky
catastrophe[26],where trajectories goes to infinity(∞) while
here it is attracted to the node.

moved away from each other’s. Trajectories tend to spend
more time around the saddle when node point approaches to

will de-shape the output. To achieve the similar results we
must set µaround 0.3 to 1.

CONCLUSION
The global structure of the action potential (AC) is analyzed
by model of Grudzinski and Zebrowski.The effects of
changing the amplitude of external forcing on the
pacemaker are examined. In this paper it is cleared that Van
der Pol oscillator can be successfully used to model the
cardiac pacemaker. Here cardiac pacemakers are modeled
through self-excited Van der Pol oscillators and then by
forced Van der Pol oscillators.
The results obtained through modified Van der Pol
oscillator and classical Van der pol oscillators are
implemented and compared.
In future we perform the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) on
both of the system to analyze the frequency response of the
system for it detailed analysis.
