Analysis of generalized projective synchronization for a chaotic gyroscope with a periodic gyroscope

In this paper, a simple nonlinear controller is applied to investigate the generalized projective synchronization for a controlled chaotic gyroscope with a periodic gyroscope dynamical system. The necessary and sufficient conditions for generalized projective synchronization are developed through the theory of discontinuous dynamical systems. The synchronization invariant domain from the synchronization conditions is presented. The parameter maps are explored for a better understanding of the synchronicity of two gyroscopes with different motions. Finally, the partial and full generalized projective synchronizations of two nonlinear coupled gyroscope systems are carried out to verify the effectiveness of the scheme.     

Reduced-order synchronization of uncertain chaotic systems via adaptive control

We consider the coupling of two uncertain dynamical systems with different orders using an adaptive feedback linearization controller to achieve reduced-order synchronization between the two systems. Reduced-order synchronization is the problem of synchronization of a slave system with projection of a master system. The synchronization scheme is an exponential linearizing-like controller and a state/uncertainty estimator. As an illustrative example, we show that the dynamical evolution of a second-order driven oscillator can be synchronized with the canonical projection of a fourth-order chaotic system. Simulation results indicated that the proposed control scheme can significantly improve the synchronousness performance. These promising results justify the usefulness of the proposed output feedback controller in the application of secure communication.     

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.     

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.

Chaos synchronization and chaos control of quantum-CNN chaotic system by variable structure control and impulse control

In this paper, we derive some less stringent conditions for the exponential and asymptotic stability of impulsive control systems with impulses at fixed times. These conditions are then used to design an impulsive control law for the Quantum Cellular Neural Network chaotic system, which drives the chaotic state to zero equilibrium and synchronizes two chaotic systems. An active sliding mode control method is synchronizing two chaotic systems and controlling chaotic state to periodic motion state. And a sufficient condition is drawn for the robust stability of the error dynamics, and is applied to guiding the design of the controllers. Finally, numerical results are used to show the robustness and effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.     

Simple adaptive variable structure control for unknown chaotic systems

This paper proposes two novel adaptive variable structure tracking controllers for a large class of chaotic systems with unknown dynamics in presence of both external disturbances and input nonlinearities. The pros and cons of each proposed methodology is also represented. In order to eliminate the chattering effect in the former controlled system, two corresponding fuzzy adaptive controllers are presented. Besides, synchronization of two non-identical uncertain chaotic systems is investigated using our proposed methods in both full and reduced-order forms. It can be seen that not only our proposed control schemes can be applied to a wide class of uncertain chaotic systems but also it is simple to implement in practical application. Finally, the proposed methods are applied to some famous chaotic systems to verify the effectiveness of the proposed methods.     

A new adaptive variable structure control for chaotic synchronization and secure communication

The Duffing–Holmes oscillator was used as an illustrative example. Simulation results validated that the proposed scheme in the application of secure communication.

Two examples are given to verify our proposed results.     

Chaos synchronization of coupled neurons via adaptive sliding mode control

In this paper, an adaptive neural network (NN) sliding mode controller (SMC) is proposed to realize the chaos synchronization of two gap junction coupled FitzHugh–Nagumo (FHN) neurons under external electrical stimulation. The controller consists of a radial basis function (RBF) NN and an SMC. After the RBFNN approximating the uncertain nonlinear part of the error dynamical system, the SMC realizes the desired control property regardless of the existence of the approximation errors and external disturbances. The weights of the NN are tuned online based on the sliding mode reaching law. According to the Lyapunov stability theory, the stability of the closed error system is guaranteed. The control scheme is robust to the uncertainties such as approximate error, ionic channel noise and external disturbances. Chaos synchronization is obtained by the proper choice of the control parameters. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control method.     

Robust synchronization of drive–response chaotic systems via adaptive sliding mode control

A robust adaptive sliding control scheme is developed in this study to achieve synchronization for two identical chaotic systems in the presence of uncertain system parameters, external disturbances and nonlinear control inputs. An adaptation algorithm is given based on the Lyapunov stability theory. Using this adaptation technique to estimate the upper-bounds of parameter variation and external disturbance uncertainties, an adaptive sliding mode controller is then constructed without requiring the bounds of parameter and disturbance uncertainties to be known in advance. It is proven that the proposed adaptive sliding mode controller can maintain the existence of sliding mode in finite time in uncertain chaotic systems. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.     

Chaos control and function projective synchronization of fractional-order systems through the backstepping method

We study the chaos control and the function projective synchronization of a fractional-order T-system and Lorenz chaotic system using the backstepping method. Based on stability theory, we consider the condition for the local stability of nonlinear three-dimensional commensurate fractional-order system. Using the feedback control method, we control the chaos in the considered fractional-order T-system. We simulate the function projective synchronization between the fractional-order T-system and Lorenz system numerically using MATLAB and depict the results with plots.     

Adaptive generalized function projective lag synchronization of different chaotic systems with fully uncertain parameters

In this paper, a novel projective synchronization scheme called adaptive generalized function projective lag synchronization (AGFPLS) is proposed. In the AGFPLS method, the states of two different chaotic systems with fully uncertain parameters are asymptotically lag synchronized up to a desired scaling function matrix. By means of the Lyapunov stability theory, an adaptive controller with corresponding parameter update rule is designed for achieving AGFPLS between two diverse chaotic systems and estimating the unknown parameters. This technique is employed to realize AGFPLS between uncertain Lü chaotic system and uncertain Liu chaotic system, and between Chen hyperchaotic system and Lorenz hyperchaotic system with fully uncertain parameters, respectively. Furthermore, AGFPLS between two different uncertain chaotic systems can still be achieved effectively with the existence of noise perturbation. The corresponding numerical simulations are performed to demonstrate the validity and robustness of the presented synchronization method.

Finally, we take Chua’s circuit as an example for illustration and verification.     

Robust adaptive neural-fuzzy-network control for the synchronization of uncertain chaotic systems

This paper proposes a robust adaptive neural-fuzzy-network control (RANFC) to address the problem of controlled synchronization of a class of uncertain chaotic systems. The proposed RANFC system is comprised of a four-layer neural-fuzzy-network (NFN) identifier and a supervisory controller. The NFN identifier is the principal controller utilized for online estimation of the compound uncertainties. The supervisory controller is used to attenuate the effects of the approximation error so that the perfect tracking and synchronization of chaotic systems are achieved. All the parameter learning algorithms are derived based on Lyapunov stability theorem to ensure network convergence as well as stable synchronization performance. Finally, simulation results are provided to verify the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed RANFC methodology.     

Global chaos synchronization of new chaotic systems via nonlinear control

Nonlinear control is an effective method for making two identical chaotic systems or two different chaotic systems be synchronized. However, this method assumes that the Lyapunov function of error dynamic (e) of synchronization is always formed as V (e) = 1/2e^Te. In this paper, modification based on Lyapunov stability theory to design a controller is proposed in order to overcome this limitation. The method has been applied successfully to make two identical new systems and two different chaotic systems (new system and Lorenz system) globally asymptotically synchronized. Since the Lyapunov exponents are not required for the calculation, this method is effective and convenient to synchronize two identical systems and two different chaotic systems. Numerical simulations are also given to validate the proposed synchronization approach.     

Chaos control and synchronization of a modified chaotic system

By replacing a quadratic nonlinear term in Lü system with a piecewise linear signum (PWL) function, a new simplified three-dimensional piecewise continuous autonomous system (a modified Lü system) is introduced. The qualitative properties of the modified Lü system are studied. Based on these properties, the feedback control law is applied to suppress chaos to one of the three equilibria. Several different synchronized methods, such as the active control, one way coupling by active control, and the adaptive active control are applied to achieve the state synchronization of two identical modified Lü systems. These results show that after the simplification, the modified Lü system can still keep the basic and typical nonlinear phenomena. Compared with the original Lü system, the modified Lü system has a lot of advantages, by which the modified Lü system can be more easily implemented by theoretical analysis, and more practicable made by secret communications.

Based on the Lyapunov stability theorem, adaptive control laws are designed to achieving the AMFPS. Finally, some numerical simulations are obtained to validate the proposed methods.
