SUMMARYBifurcation phenomena in a composite dynamic system are studied in order to understand the basic properties of systems. Recently, it has been reported that unavoidable non-ideal switching, e.g., spike noise or a time delay, occurs due to switching and seriously affects the behavior of the trajectory in a composite dynamical system operating in high-frequency switching ranges. We have analyzed the basic properties of a simple one-dimensional composite dynamical system with nonideal switching in order to understand the essence of the dynamical effects of nonideal switching. In the engineering field, there are many two-or more dimensional systems. Naturally, nonideal switching can occur in two-or more dimensional systems. However, no paper analyzes the effect of nonideal switching in such systems. In this paper, we study the basic properties of a two-dimensional composite dynamical system with spike noise. First, we describe a model of a two-dimensional composite dynamical system. Next, the behavior of the waveforms in a system with ideal switching and a system with spike noise is shown. Then, we sample the data of the waveforms in every period for the external force and define a Poincaré map. Finally, using the Poincaré map, we derive two-parameter bifurcation diagrams and discuss the basic properties of a system with spike noise. C⃝ 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
