Generalized synchronization of chaotic systems by pure error dynamics and elaborate Lyapunov function

The generalized synchronization is studied by applying pure error dynamics and elaborate Lyapunov function in this paper. Generalized synchronization can be obtained by pure error dynamics without auxiliary numerical simulation, instead of current mixed error dynamics in which master state variables and slave state variables are presented. The elaborate Lyapunov function is applied rather than the current plain square sum Lyapunov function, deeply weakening the power of Lyapunov direct method. The scheme is successfully applied to both autonomous and nonautonomous double Mathieu systems with numerical simulations.     

The generalized synchronization of a Quantum-CNN chaotic oscillator with different order systems

This paper presents a special kind of the generalized synchronization of different order systems, proved by Lyapunov asymptotical stability theorem. A sufficient condition is given for the asymptotical stability of the null solution of an error dynamics. The generalized synchronization developed may be applied to the design of secure communication. Finally, numerical results are studied for a Quantum-CNN oscillator synchronized with three different order systems respectively to show the effectiveness of the proposed synchronization strategy.     

Adaptive terminal sliding mode control subject to input nonlinearity for synchronization of chaotic gyros

Under the existence of system uncertainties, external disturbances, and input nonlinearity, complete synchronization and anti-synchronization between two chaotic gyros are achieved by introducing a novel adaptive terminal sliding mode (ATSM) controller. In the literature, by taking account of input nonlinearity, the magnitudes of bounded nonlinear dynamics of synchronous error system were required in the designed sliding mode controller. In this study, the proposed ATSM controller associated with time-varying feedback gains can tackle nonlinear dynamics according to the novel adaptive rules. These feedback gains are not necessary to be determined in advance but updated by the adaptive rules without known the magnitudes of bounded nonlinear dynamics, system uncertainties, and external disturbances. Sufficient conditions to guarantee stable synchronization are given in the sense of the Lyapunov stability theorem, and the numerical simulations are performed to verify the effectiveness of presented schemes.     

Linear generalized synchronization between two complex networks

In this paper, the linear generalized synchronization between two complex networks is investigated. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, a simple criterion for linear generalized synchronization between two networks with the same connection topologies is attained by using the nonlinear control method, which can widen the application range of the generalized synchronization methods. The feasibility of the proposed scheme is proved in theory and numerical simulations further demonstrate the effectiveness of it.     

Parameters estimation,mixed synchronization,and antisynchronization in chaotic systems

Mixed synchronization between two Hindmarsh–Rose neuron models is realized by optimizing the scheme of Lyapunov function with two selectable gain coefficients. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, the distribution of synchronization region and the nonsynchronization region in the two‐parameter phase space is calculated, respectively. And then the optimized parameter observers and controllers are approached analytically. All unknown parameters with different orders of magnitude are identified accurately, and the error function for corresponding variables decreases to stable value when the two gain coefficients are given values in the synchronization region. Otherwise, only the four larger unknown parameters are estimated exactly and the error function of corresponding variables decreases stably to certain minimal value with an order about 1 × 10^?6, whereas the smallest unknown parameter is approached greatly although the error of corresponding variables are stabilized within certain transient period. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Global exponential synchronization of nonlinear time-delay Lur’e systems via delayed impulsive control

This paper is concerned with the global exponential synchronization problem of two identical nonlinear time-delay Lur’e systems via delayed impulsive control. Some novel impulsive synchronization criteria are obtained by introducing a discontinuous Lyapunov function and by using the Lyapunov–Razumikhin technique, which are expressed in forms of linear matrix inequalities. The derived criteria reveal the effects of impulsive input delays and impulsive intervals on the stability of synchronization error systems. Then, sufficient conditions on the existence of a delayed impulsive controller are derived by employing these newly-obtained synchronization criteria. Additionally, some synchronization criteria for two identical time-delay Lur’e systems with impulsive effects are presented by using delayed continuous feedback control. The synchronization criteria via delayed continuous feedback control can deal with the case when the impulsive control strategy fails to synchronize two identical impulsive time-delay Lur’e systems. Three numerical examples are provided to illustrate the efficiency of the obtained results.     

Synchronization criteria in complex dynamical networks with nonsymmetric coupling and multiple time-varying delays

In this article, we consider a generalized complex dynamical network model with nonsymmetric coupling, and the dynamics of each node has a different time-varying delay. Criteria of exponential synchronization are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities for the model by constructing suitable Lyapunov functionals. The obtained outcomes are different from those in the current literature, in which the complex dynamical networks are coupling symmetrically and delays are fixed constants. Moreover, the given sufficient conditions extend current available results and are verifiable. A numerical example is provided to illustrate the efficiency of the derived outcome.     

Complex complete synchronization of two nonidentical hyperchaotic complex nonlinear systems

In this paper, we introduce the definition of complex complete synchronization (CCS) of hyperchaotic complex nonlinear systems that have not been introduced recently in the literature. This type of synchronization can study only for complex nonlinear systems. On the basis of Lyapunov function, a scheme is designed to achieve the CCS of two nonidentical hyperchaotic attractors of these systems. The effectiveness of the obtained results is illustrated by a simulation example. Numerical results are plotted to show state variables, modules errors, and phases errors of these hyperchaotic attractors after synchronization to prove that CCS is achieved.

Exponential generalized synchronization of uncertain coupled chaotic systems by adaptive control

In this paper, the exponential generalized synchronization for a class of coupled systems with uncertainties is defined. A novel and powerful method is proposed to investigate the generalized synchronization based on the adaptive control technique. According to the Lyapunov stability theory, rigorous proof is given for the exponential stability of error system. In comparison with previous schemes, the presented method shortens the synchronization time and is more applicable in practice. Besides, it is shown that the synchronization effect is robust against the uncertain factors. Some typical chaotic and hyper-chaotic systems are taken as examples to illustrate above approach. The corresponding numerical simulations are demonstrated to verify the effectiveness of proposed method.     

Projective lag synchronization in chaotic systems

In this paper, a new projective lag synchronization is proposed, where a driven chaotic system synchronizes the past state of the driver up to a scaling factor α. An active control method is employed to design a controller to achieve the global synchronization of two identical chaotic systems. Based on Lyapunov stability theorem, a sufficient condition is then given for the asymptotical stability of the null solution of an error dynamics. The effectiveness of the proposed schemes is verified via numerical simulations.

Complete synchronization,phase synchronization and parameters estimation in a realistic chaotic system

The two-parameter phase space in certain nonlinear system is investigated and the chaotic region of parameters are measured to show its chaotic properties. Within the chaotic parameter region, the complete synchronization, phase synchronization and parameters estimation are discussed in detail by using adaptive synchronization scheme and Lyapunov stability theory. Two changeable gain coefficients are introduced into the controllable positive Lyapunov function and thus the parameter observers. It is found that complete synchronization or phase synchronization occurs with different controllers being used though the parameter observers are the same. Phase synchronization is observed when zero eigenvalue of Jacobi matrix, which is composed of the errors of corresponding variables in the drive and driven chaotic systems. The optimized selection of controllers can induce transition of phase synchronization and complete synchronization.     

Adaptive generalized function projective synchronization of uncertain chaotic systems

This paper mainly investigates adaptive generalized function projective synchronization of two different uncertain chaotic systems, which is a further extension of many existing projection synchronization schemes, such as modified projection synchronization, function projective synchronization and so on. On the basis of Lyapunov stability theory, an adaptive controller for the synchronization of two different chaotic systems is designed, and some parameter update laws for estimating the unknown parameters of the systems are also gained. This technique is applied to achieve synchronization between Lorenz and Rössler chaotic systems. The numerical simulations demonstrate the validity and feasibility of the proposed method.     

Chaos generalized synchronization of an inertial tachometer with new Mathieu-Van der Pol systems as functional system by GYC partial region stability theory

A new strategy to achieve generalized chaos synchronization by GYC partial region stability theory is proposed. By using the GYC partial region stability theory the Lyapunov function is a simple linear homogeneous function of error states and the controllers are more simple and introduce less simulation error because they are in lower order than that of traditional controllers. In simulation examples, an inertial tachometer system and Mathieu-Van der Pol system are used.

Chaos control and generalized projective synchronization of heavy symmetric chaotic gyroscope systems via Gaussian radial basis adaptive variable structure control

This paper proposes the chaos control and the generalized projective synchronization methods for heavy symmetric gyroscope systems via Gaussian radial basis adaptive variable structure control. Because of the nonlinear terms of the gyroscope system, the system exhibits chaotic motions. Occasionally, the extreme sensitivity to initial states in a system operating in chaotic mode can be very destructive to the system because of unpredictable behavior. In order to improve the performance of a dynamic system or avoid the chaotic phenomena, it is necessary to control a chaotic system with a periodic motion beneficial for working with a particular condition. As chaotic signals are usually broadband and noise like, synchronized chaotic systems can be used as cipher generators for secure communication. This paper presents chaos synchronization of two identical chaotic motions of symmetric gyroscopes. In this paper, the switching surfaces are adopted to ensure the stability of the error dynamics in variable structure control. Using the neural variable structure control technique, control laws are established which guarantees the chaos control and the generalized projective synchronization of unknown gyroscope systems. In the neural variable structure control, Gaussian radial basis functions are utilized to on-line estimate the system dynamic functions. Also, the adaptation laws of the on-line estimator are derived in the sense of Lyapunov function. Thus, the unknown gyro systems can be guaranteed to be asymptotically stable. Also, the proposed method can achieve the control objectives. Numerical simulations are presented to verify the proposed control and synchronization methods. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed methods is discussed.     

Speed and current regulation of a permanent magnet synchronous motor via nonlinear and adaptive backstepping control

This paper proposes a new speed and current control scheme for a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) by means of a nonlinear and adaptive backstepping design. All the parameters in both PMSM and load dynamics are considered unknown. It is assumed that all state variables are measurable and available for feedback in the controller design. The final control and parameter estimation laws are derived by the design of the virtual control inputs and the Lyapunov function candidate. The overall control system is asymptotically stable according to stability analysis results based on Lyapunov stability theory. Simulation results clearly show that the controller guarantees tracking of a time varying reference speed owing to the fact that the speed and current tracking errors asymptotically converge to zero despite all the parameter uncertainties/perturbations and load torque disturbance variation. Numerical simulations reveal the performance and feasibility of the proposed controller.     

Synchronization for the coupled stochastic strict-feedback nonlinear systems with delays under pinning control

In this paper, a class of new coupled stochastic strict-feedback nonlinear systems with delays (CSFND) on networks without strong connectedness (NWSC) is considered, and the issue pertaining to the synchronization of the systems is discussed by pinning control. Towards CSFND, the controllers are approached by combining the back-stepping method and the design of virtual controllers. A key novel design ingredient is that the global Lyapunov function is obtained based on each Lyapunov function of stochastic strict-feedback nonlinear systems with delays (SFND). Moreover, a sufficient criterion is presented to realize the exponential synchronization by employing the graph theory and Lyapunov method. As a subsequent result, we apply the obtained theoretical results to the second-order oscillator systems and robotic arm systems. Meanwhile, numerical simulations are provided to demonstrate the validity and feasibility of our theoretical results.     

Finite-time synchronization of master-slave neural networks with time-delays and discontinuous activations

This paper deals with the finite-time synchronization issue of time-varying delayed neural networks (DNNs) with discontinuous activations. Based on master-slave concept, several sufficient conditions are given to guarantee the finite-time synchronization of discontinuous DNNs. In order to control the synchronization error to converge zero in a finite time, we design three classes of novel switching state-feedback controllers which involve time-delays and discontinuous factors. The analysis in this paper employs the extended differential inclusion theory, the famous finite-time stability theorem, inequality techniques and generalized Lyapunov approach. Moreover, the upper bounds of the settling time of synchronization are estimated. Finally, the validity of proposed design method and theoretical results are illustrated by numerical examples.
