noise ratio (SNR) in nonlinear dynamical system. The phenomenon shows the counterintuitive role played by noise Abstract—Based on the theory of stochastic resonance, a in nonlinear systems since it enhances the response of a new method was presented to enhance signal-to-noise ratio system subject to a weak external signal[6]. There have been (SNR) of HPLC/MS signal for trace analysis with a new several applications in improving analytical detection limits optimization method of the system parameters. The method for trace analysis. Such as Pan et al. had improved the was applied to experimental weak signals of HPLC/MS, which detectability of analytes in gas chromatography by utilizing was embedded in the noise background and the SNR was the theory of SR[3]. Zhang et al. had essfully employed enhanced greatly. The LOD and LOQ were improved from 10 SR to improve the detectability of liquid chromatography and ng/ml and
