Model reference adaptive synchronization of T–S fuzzy discrete chaotic systems using output tracking control

This paper presents a model reference adaptive control approach for the synchronization of a discrete-time chaotic systems using output tracking control. The reference model system is chosen using the output of master system and Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy model is employed to represent the discrete-time chaotic slave system. Design the control input so that the controlled slave system achieves asymptotic synchronization with the reference system given that two systems start from different initial conditions, different parameters and/or different type of model. Using a gradient algorithm, the ideal controller gains which can stabilize the error equation are estimated. Simulation examples of two cases are given to demonstrate the validity of our proposed adaptive method.     

Chaos synchronization between two different chaotic systems with uncertainties, external disturbances, unknown parameters and input nonlinearities

In this paper, the problem of chaos synchronization between two different uncertain chaotic systems with input nonlinearities is investigated. Both master and slave systems are perturbed by model uncertainties, external disturbances and unknown parameters. The bounds of the model uncertainties and external disturbances are assumed to be unknown in advance. First, a simple linear sliding surface is selected. Then, appropriate adaptive laws are derived to tackle the model uncertainties, external disturbances and unknown parameters. Subsequently, based on the adaptive laws and Lyapunov stability theory, a robust adaptive sliding mode control law is designed to guarantee the existence of the sliding motion. Two illustrative examples are presented to verify the usefulness and applicability of the proposed technique.     

Adaptive synchronization of single-degree-of-freedom oscillators with unknown parameters

In this paper, an adaptive control scheme is proposed for the synchronization of two single-degree-of-freedom oscillators with unknown parameters. We only assume that the master system has the bounded solutions, which is generally satisfied for chaotic systems. Unlike the existing literature, the boundedness of the states of the slave system with control input is not necessarily known in advance. The boundedness of the controlled states is rigorously proved. The unknown parameters not only in the slave system but also in the master system are estimated by designing adaptive laws. By choosing appropriate Lyapunov function and employing Barbalat’s lemma, it is theoretically shown that the synchronization errors can converge to zero asymptotically. Finally, two illustrative examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive control design.     

Synchronization of a chaotic electronic circuit system with cubic term via adaptive feedback control

This paper presents an adaptive feedback control scheme for the synchronization of the chaotic system consisting of Van der Pol oscillators coupled to linear oscillators with cubic term when the parameters of the master system are unknown and different with the those of the slave system. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, an adaptive control law is derived to make the states of two slightly mismatched chaotic systems asymptotically synchronized. This method is efficient and easy to implement. Numerical simulations results confirming the analytical predictions are shown and pspice simulations are also performed to confirm the efficiency of the proposed control scheme.     

Synchronization of two different uncertain chaotic systems with unknown parameters using a robust adaptive sliding mode controller

In this paper, a robust adaptive sliding mode controller (RASMC) is proposed to realize chaos synchronization between two different chaotic systems with uncertainties, external disturbances and fully unknown parameters. It is assumed that both master and slave chaotic systems are perturbed by uncertainties, external disturbances and unknown parameters. The bounds of the uncertainties and external disturbances are assumed to be unknown in advance. Suitable update laws are designed to tackle the uncertainties, external disturbances and unknown parameters. For constructing the RASMC a simple sliding surface is first designed. Then, the RASMC is derived to guarantee the occurrence of the sliding motion. The robustness and stability of the proposed RASMC is proved using Lyapunov stability theory. Finally, the introduced RASMC is applied to achieve chaos synchronization between three different pairs of the chaotic systems (Lorenz–Chen, Chen–Lorenz, and Liu–Lorenz) in the presence of the uncertainties, external disturbances and unknown parameters. Some numerical simulations are given to demonstrate the robustness and efficiency of the proposed RASMC.     

A practical projective synchronization approach for uncertain chaotic systems with dead-zone input

In this paper, a practical projective synchronization problem of master–slave chaotic systems is investigated. More specifically, a fuzzy adaptive slave chaotic system subject to dead-zone nonlinearity in the input channel is proposed using only the measurable output of the master system thanks to a suitable observer. A practical projective synchronization between the master and slave systems is achieved by an adequate fuzzy adaptive control system. The underlying parameter adaptation design as well as stability analysis are carried out using a Lyapunov based approach. Unlike the previous works, in the design of the proposed synchronization scheme, we do not require to know the uncertainties function and that the dynamics of the original synchronization error are strictly positive real (SPR). In fact, herein, the uncertainties function is estimated by a fuzzy adaptive system and the dynamics of the original synchronization error are augmented by a low pass filter designed to satisfy the SPR condition. Simulation results are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed practical projective synchronization scheme.

Secure communications based on the synchronization of the hyperchaotic Chen and the unified chaotic systems

This paper deals with the adaptive synchronization of two identical hyperchaotic master and slave systems. The master system and the slave system each consists of two subsystems: a hyperchaotic Chen subsystem and a unified chaotic subsystem. The asymptotic convergence of the errors between the states of the master system and the states of the slave system is proven using Lyapunov theory. Simulation results are presented to illustrate the ability of the control law to synchronize the master and slave systems. Moreover, the proposed control scheme is applied to encrypt and decrypt discrete signals such as digital images where computer simulation results are provided to show that the proposed control law works well.     

Function vector synchronization based on fuzzy control for uncertain chaotic systems with dead‐zone nonlinearities

In this article, a fuzzy adaptive control scheme is designed to achieve a function vector synchronization behavior between two identical or different chaotic (or hyperchaotic) systems in the presence of unknown dynamic disturbances and input nonlinearities (dead‐zone and sector nonlinearities). This proposed synchronization scheme can be considered as a generalization of many existing projective synchronization schemes (namely the function projective synchronization, the modified projective synchronization, generalized projective synchronization, and so forth) in the sense that the master and slave outputs are assumed to be some general function vectors. To practically deal with the input nonlinearities, the adaptive fuzzy control system is designed in a variable‐structure framework. The fuzzy systems are used to appropriately approximate the uncertain nonlinear functions. A Lyapunov approach is used to prove the boundedness of all signals of the closed‐loop control system as well as the exponential convergence of the corresponding synchronization errors to an adjustable region. The synchronization between two identical systems (chaotic satellite systems) and two different systems (chaotic Chen and Lü systems) are taken as two illustrative examples to show the effectiveness of the proposed method. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A chattering-free robust adaptive sliding mode controller for synchronization of two different chaotic systems with unknown uncertainties and external disturbances

In this paper, a robust adaptive sliding mode controller (RASMC) is introduced to synchronize two different chaotic systems in the presence of unknown bounded uncertainties and external disturbances. The structure of the master and slave chaotic systems has no restrictive assumption. Appropriate adaptation laws are derived to tackle the uncertainties and external disturbances. Based on the adaptation laws and Lyapunov stability theory, an adaptive sliding control law is designed to ensure the occurrence of the sliding motion even when both master and slave systems are perturbed with unknown uncertainties and external disturbances. Since the conventional sliding mode controllers contain the sign function, the undesirable chattering is occurred. We propose a new simple adaptive scheme to eliminate the chattering. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to verify the usefulness and applicability of the proposed control strategy.     

Quadratic optimal synchronization of uncertain chaotic systems

This paper investigates the quadratic optimal synchronization of uncertain chaotic systems with parameter mismatch, parametric perturbations and external disturbances on both master and slave systems. A robust control scheme based on Lyapunov stability theory and quadratic optimal control approach is derived to realize chaotic synchronization. The sufficient criterion for stability condition is formulated in a linear matrix inequality (LMI) form. The effect of uncertain parameters and external disturbance is suppressed to an H_∞ norm constraint. An adaptive algorithm is proposed to adjust the uncertain bound in the robust controller avoiding the chattering phenomena. The simulation results for synchronization of the Chua’s circuit system and the Lorenz system demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.     

Adaptive synchronization of identical chaotic and hyper-chaotic systems with uncertain parameters

This paper addresses a unified mathematical expression describing a class of chaotic systems, for which the problem of adaptive synchronization between two nearly identical chaotic and hyper-chaotic systems with uncertain parameters is studied. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, a novel adaptive synchronization controller is designed, and the analytic expression of the controller and the adaptive laws of parameters are developed. The controller is simple and systemic, no parameters of the slave system are included in the controller, and, for some specific error systems, the controller can be simplified ulteriorly. New chaotic and a new hyper-chaotic systems with uncertain parameters are taken as the examples to show the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive synchronization method.     

Circuit realization,chaos synchronization and estimation of parameters of a hyperchaotic system with unknown parameters

In this article, the adaptive chaos synchronization technique is implemented by an electronic circuit and applied to the hyperchaotic system proposed by Chen et al. We consider the more realistic and practical case where all the parameters of the master system are unknowns. We propose and implement an electronic circuit that performs the estimation of the unknown parameters and the updating of the parameters of the slave system automatically, and hence it achieves the synchronization. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt to implement a circuit that estimates the values of the unknown parameters of chaotic system and achieves synchronization. The proposed circuit has a variety of suitable real applications related to chaos encryption and cryptography. The outputs of the implemented circuits and numerical simulation results are shown to view the performance of the synchronized system and the proposed circuit.     

Synchronization of the unified chaotic systems using a sliding mode controller

The unified chaotic system incorporates the behaviors of the Lorenz, the Chen and the Lü chaotic systems. This paper deals with the synchronization of two identical unified chaotic systems where the slave system is assumed to have a single input. A sliding mode controller is proposed to synchronize the two systems. The asymptotic convergence to zero of the errors between the states of the master and the slave systems is shown. Simulations results are presented to illustrate the proposed controller; they indicate that the designed controller is able to synchronize the unified chaotic systems. Also, simulation results show that the proposed control scheme is robust to random bounded disturbances acting on the master system. Moreover, the proposed scheme is applied to the secure communications field, where simulation results indicate that the proposed scheme is effective.     

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.

The proposed method is applied for dual synchronization of the Lorenz–Rossler, Rossler–Chen and Duffing–Van der Pol chaotic systems through computer simulation. The results show the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed algorithm.     

Synchronization criteria of Lur’e systems with time-delay feedback control

In this paper time-delay effects on the master–slave synchronization scheme are studied by a time-delay feedback control technique. Several new delay-independent and delay-dependent sufficient conditions are presented for master–slave synchronization of Lur’e systems based upon Lyapunov method and linear matrix inequalities (LMI’s) approaches. These new synchronization criteria are easily verifiable and offer some fairly adjustable real parameters, which are of important significance in the design and applications of such chaos synchronization systems, and the proposed results improve and generalize the earlier works.

This paper investigates the modified function projective synchronization (MFPS) between two different dimensional chaotic systems with fully unknown or partially unknown parameters via increased order. Based on the Lyapunov stability theorem and adaptive control method, a unified adaptive controller and parameters update law can be designed for achieving the MFPS of the two different chaotic systems with different orders. Numerical simulations are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed synchronization scheme.     

Robust synchronization of a class of chaotic systems with disturbance estimation

This paper investigates the robust synchronization problem for a class of chaotic systems with external disturbances. By using disturbance-observer-based control (DOBC) and LMI approach, the disturbance observers are developed to ensure the boundedness of the disturbance error dynamical. Then, by employing the sliding mode control technique, an adaptive control law is established to eliminate the effect of disturbance error to realize synchronization between the master and slave systems. Finally, the corresponding numerical simulations are demonstrated to verify the effectiveness of proposed method.

In this paper, a novel fractional‐integer integral type sliding mode technique for control and generalized function projective synchronization of different fractional‐order chaotic systems with different dimensions in the presence of disturbances is presented. When the upper bounds of the disturbances are known, a sliding mode control rule is proposed to insure the existence of the sliding motion in finite time. Furthermore, an adaptive sliding mode control is designed when the upper bounds of the disturbances are unknown. The stability analysis of sliding mode surface is given using the Lyapunov stability theory. Finally, the results performed for synchronization of three‐dimensional fractional‐order chaotic Hindmarsh‐Rose (HR) neuron model and two‐dimensional fractional‐order chaotic FitzHugh‐Nagumo (FHN) neuron model.
