Nonlinear radiation dynamics of a solid-state ring laser is studied in the region of laser parameters corresponding to the parametric resonance between the self-modulation and relaxation oscillations. Bistable regions are found in which, apart from the self-modulation regime of the first kind, a stable quasi-periodic self-modulation regime exists. Temporal and spectral emission parameters of counterpropagating waves are considered in the bistable self-modulation generation regimes. The effect of noise on the bistable self-modulation oscillations is studied. It is shown that during the interaction of noise, spectral peaks split at relaxation and self-modulation frequencies.
