Abstract

The effect of additive coloured noises, which are correlated in time, on one-dimensional travelling waves in the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation is studied by numerical simulations. We found that a small coloured noise with temporal correlation could considerably influence the stability of one-dimensional wave trains. There exists an optimal temporal correlation of noise where travelling waves are the most vulnerable. To elucidate the phenomena, we statistically calculated the convective velocities V g of the wave packets, and found that the coloured noise with an appropriate temporal correlation can decrease V g, making the system convectively more unstable.
