We consider the behavior of a modulated wave solution to
an $\mathbb{S}^1$-equivariant autonomous system of differential equations under an external
forcing of modulated wave type. The modulation frequency of the forcing is assumed to be close to the
modulation frequency of the modulated wave solution, while the wave frequency of the forcing is supposed to be far
from that of the modulated wave solution. We describe the domain in the three-dimensional
control parameter space (of frequencies and amplitude of the forcing)
where stable locking of the modulation frequencies of the forcing and the modulated wave solution
occurs.
Our system is a simplest case scenario for the behavior of self-pulsating lasers under the influence of external
periodically modulated
optical signals.
