Self-synchronization of Thomson self-oscillatory systems in discrete time

The effect arising in discrete time at interaction of self-oscillations with higher harmonics of the main frequency is described. It is shown that it is similar to effect of capture of the frequency (synchronization) of self-oscillations by an external harmonic signal. As the discrete oscillator formally is autonomous system, the effect is classified as self-capture of frequency or self-synchronization. Self-capture is analysed by method of slow-changing amplitudes. It is specified that via the mechanism of self-synchronization the binding of frequency of discrete self-oscillations to sampling frequency is carried out.
