Wavelet formation following collision of a wavefront with an unexcitable obstacle is studied analytically and numerically in a two-dimensional FitzHugh Nagumo excitable medium. Conditions are found when the incident wave colliding with a thin unexcitable filament separates resulting in the initiation of new spiral wavefronts. Numerical experiments reveal good agreement with analytical estimation.
