Abstract
We study the collective behavior of a 2D network of nonidentical oscillators in the chaotic regime and find that ordered phase can emerge in the collective behavior, due to mutual coupling. The resulting phase cluster is a frequency-locking. The configuration of pattern depends on time and can be divided into several phase clusters when coupling is over some threshold. The frequency-locked spatiotemporal patterns are determined by the mismatched parameter and the coupling strength, and its regularity can be measured by an average nearest-neighbor distance.
