Comparison of stabilization modes of a symmetrical third-order non-linear oscillatory unit

The possibility of constructing symmetrical stabilized oscillator models that operate in several phases instead of operating in two phases, as is more usual, is considered in the present paper. In particular, symmetrical oscillator models operating in three phases are discussed comprehensively. An interesting feature of their dynamic behaviour, e.g. the appearance of limit cycles which are regionally stable and not orbitally stable, as is the case in the two phase counterpart, is suggested and dealt with.
