A simple numerical experiment on Fitzhugh-Nagumo equations demonstrates that time-delay feedback methods can stabilize regular behavior in a paced, excitable oscillator without using large applied pulses. The method is robust against slow variations in the pacing rate and can be used to track an orbit into a parameter regime where it is unstable. Moreover, the method requires no information about the desired orbit other than period, which is determined directly by the observation of the pacing signal. Results are presented for feedback stabilization of a nonspiking orbit in the rapid pacing regime.
