| Abstract: | In this paper, outer synchronization between drive-response dynamical networks is investigated. Impulsive control combining with adaptive strategy is adopted to design controllers for achieving the goal. Based on the Lyapunov function method and mathematical analysis technique, a synchronization criterion with respect to the impulsive gains and intervals is analytically derived. From the criterion, the impulsive gains can adjust themselves to proper values when the impulsive intervals and some constants are fixed, and vice versa. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to verify the effectiveness of the derived result. |
