In quantum computing, it also contributes directly to the computational advantage of quantum computers over its digital counterparts. In this work, we introduce a simple mechanism that frames nonseparability as a time-averaged manifestation of an underlying oscillatory process within state space. The central idea is the inclusion of auxiliary angular frequencies that modulate the temporal evolution of composite states. These additional dynamical degrees of freedom act as coherence channels through which nonseparability is mediated. While the proposed formalism could eventually serve as an alternative theoretical handle on the mechanisms of quantum entanglement, its greater significance lies in opening practical routes for simulating multipartite entanglement in controlled classical wave systems.
