Synchronization transition in degenerate optical parametric oscillators induced by nonlinear coupling

In this paper, the synchronization of certain degenerate optical parametric oscillators is investigated in detail. Complete and/or partial synchronization can be reached when linear controller, constructed by the real part or imaginary part of the subharmonic mode, is imposed on the chaotic degenerate optical parametric oscillators with appropriate coupling intensity. The Lyapunov exponents under different coupling coefficients are calculated to find the critical condition for complete synchronization. Transition from complete synchronization to partial synchronization is observed when nonlinear coupling is introduced into the two chaotic oscillators. It is found that synchronization of chaotic oscillators keeps robust when the intensity of the nonlinear coupling is less than the intensity of the linear coupling; the complete synchronization state is destructed and transient period for partial synchronization is in certain delay when the intensity of the nonlinear coupling is beyond the intensity of the linear coupling.     

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.     

Chaos synchronization between two different chaotic dynamical systems

This work presents chaos synchronization between two different chaotic systems by nonlinear control laws. First, synchronization problem between Genesio system and Rossler system has been investigated, and then the similar approach is applied to the synchronization problem between Genesio system and a new chaotic system developed recently in the literature. The control performances are verified by two numerical examples.     

The chaotic synchronization of a controlled pendulum with a periodically forced,damped Duffing oscillator

In this paper, the chaotic synchronization of the Duffing oscillator and controlled pendulum is investigated. From the analytical conditions developed in [1], the partial and full synchronizations of the controlled pendulum with chaotic motions in the Duffing oscillator are discussed. Compared with the periodic synchronization, in the chaotic synchronization, switching points for appearance and vanishing of the partial synchronization are chaotic. The control parameter map for the synchronization is developed from the analytical conditions, and the partial and full synchronizations are illustrated to show the analytical conditions. This synchronization is different from the controlled Duffing oscillator synchronizing with chaotic motion in the periodically excited pendulum. For a better understanding of synchronization characteristics between two different dynamical systems, effects with other parameters will be discussed later.     

Generalized function projective (lag, anticipated and complete) synchronization between two different complex networks with nonidentical nodes

Generalized function projective (lag, anticipated and complete) synchronization between two different complex networks with nonidentical nodes is investigated in this paper. Based on Barbalat’s lemma, some sufficient synchronization criteria are derived by applying the nonlinear feedback control. Although previous work studied function projective synchronization on complex dynamical networks, the dynamics of the nodes are coupled partially linear chaotic systems. In our work, the dynamics of the nodes of the complex networks are any chaotic systems without the limitation of the partial linearity. In addition, each network can be undirected or directed, connected or disconnected, and nodes in either network may have identical or different dynamics. The proposed strategy is applicable to almost all kinds of complex networks. Numerical simulations further verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed synchronization method. Numeric evidence shows that the synchronization rate is sensitively influenced by the feedback strength, the time delay, the network size and the network topological structure.     

Switching among three different kinds of synchronization for delay chaotic systems

We found that the complete synchronization, anticipating synchronization and lag synchronization can be reached by the same kind of one way coupling for a large class of chaotic delay system. By changing the transformation time of the coupling signal we can switch from anticipating synchronization to complete synchronization, and then to lag synchronization. Numerical simulation for three chaotic delay systems were presented, one of them was novel which had two degree of freedoms, and the other two were the well known Ikeda and Mackey–Glass system which are one degree of freedom chaotic delay system. The theoretical analysis and the numerical simulation agreed perfect good.     

Global finite-time synchronization of different dimensional chaotic systems

This paper addresses the problem of global finite-time synchronization of two different dimensional chaotic systems. Firstly, the definition of global finite-time synchronization of different dimensional chaotic systems are introduced. Based on the finite-time stability methods, the controller is designed such that the chaotic systems are globally synchronized in a finite time. Then, some uncertain parameters are adopted in the chaotic systems, new control law and dynamical parameter estimation are proposed to guarantee that the global finite-time synchronization can be obtained. By considering a dynamical parameter designed in the controller, the adaptive updated controller is also designed to achieve the desired results. At last, the results of two different dimensional chaotic systems are also extended to two different dimensional networked chaotic systems. Finally, three numerical examples are given to verify the validity of the proposed methods.     

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 general scheme for Q-S synchronization of chaotic systems with unknown parameters and scaling functions

This work investigates Q-S synchronization of non-identical chaotic systems with unknown parameters and scaling function. The sufficient conditions for achieving Q-S synchronization with a double-desired scaling function of two different chaotic systems (including different dimensional systems) are derived based on the Lyapunov stability theory. By the adaptive control technique, the corresponding parameter update laws are proposed such that the Q-S synchronization of non-identical chaotic systems is to be obtained. Two illustrative numerical simulations are also given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.     

Synchronization of chaotic neural networks with mixed time delays

In this paper, we investigate the synchronization problems of chaotic neural networks with mixed time delays. We first establish the sufficient conditions for synchronization of identical chaotic neural networks with mixed time delays via linear output feedback control. To overcome the difficulty that complete synchronization between nonidentical chaotic neural networks cannot be achieved only by utilizing output feedback control, we use a sliding mode control approach to study the synchronization of nonidentical chaotic neural networks with mixed time delays, where the parameters and functions are mismatched. Numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the main results.     

Adaptive projective synchronization for a class of switched chaotic systems

This paper addresses the problem of projective synchronization of chaotic systems and switched chaotic systems by adaptive control methods. First, a necessary and sufficient condition is proposed to show how many state variables can realize projective synchronization under a linear feedback controller for the chaotic systems. Then, accordingly, a new algorithm is given to select all state variables that can realize projective synchronization. Furthermore, according to the results of the projective synchronization of chaotic systems, the problem of projective synchronization of the switched chaotic systems comprised by the unified chaotic systems is investigated, and an adaptive global linear feedback controller with only one input channel is designed, which can realize the projective synchronization under the arbitrary switching law. It is worth mentioning that the proposed method can also realize complete synchronization of the switched chaotic systems. Finally, the numerical simulation results verify the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed method.

The numerical simulations demonstrate the validity and feasibility of the proposed method.     

Specialized study to perform complex phase synchronization of two chaotic complex systems including a similar structure of direct terms with modifying in nonlinear terms

We ponder a different kind of complex synchronization. We name this sort “complex phase synchronization” (CPHS). This review concentrates on two chaotic complex structures, including a similar structure of direct terms with totally differing or incompletely in nonlinear terms. A novel plan is needed to complete the complex phase synchronization (CPHS) for the chaotic complex structures. In this plan, we have utilized the dependability hypothesis to decide diagnostically the complex control capacities that are expected to accomplish CPHS. From this plan, we found that CPHS holds or incorporates two sorts of synchronizations (phase and anti-phase synchronizations) and the state factors of the main structure synchronize with alternate state factors of the slave structure. We connected this plan, for instance, to study the CPHS of two chaotic complex Lü structures with incompletely changing in nonlinear terms. These complex (or mind-boggling) structures resemble in various imperative areas of mineral science and building. Numerical outcomes are sketched out to uncover the phases and modules errors of these chaotic attractors, subsequently communicating that CPHS is fulfilled. A specific application in secure communication is designed. Amongst this secure communication, CPHS between transmitter and collector is the key to the information signs are regained.     

On impulsive control for synchronization and its application to the nuclear spin generator system

The issue of impulsive control theory for the synchronization of the nuclear spin generator (NSG) chaotic systems is developed. We propose an impulsive control scheme for the complete synchronization of the NSG system including chaotic systems. A sufficient condition for the impulsive control is derived, with an easily calculated maximum impulsive interval. The proposed impulsive control scheme is applied to the NSG system and the simulation result demonstrates the effectiveness of the method.     

A special full-state hybrid projective synchronization in symmetrical chaotic systems

A special full-state hybrid projective synchronization type is proposed in this paper. The anti-synchronization and complete synchronization can be achieved simultaneously in this new synchronization phenomenon. We point out how to realize this synchronization in chaotic systems: anti-synchronization in symmetrical coordinate subspace and complete synchronization in its normal coordinate subspace. Two illustrative examples, multi-scroll chaotic system by the partial Lyapunov stability theory, and a four-dimensional chaotic system by the invariance principle of differential equation are presented to exhibit this new synchronization.

This research demonstrates the effectiveness of application in secure communication. Numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the main results.     

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 synchronization in noisy environment using nonlinear filtering and sliding mode control

This paper presents an algorithm for synchronizing two different chaotic systems, using a combination of the extended Kalman filter and the sliding mode controller. It is assumed that the drive chaotic system has a random excitation with a stochastically chaotic behavior. Two different cases are considered in this study. At first it is assumed that all state variables of the drive system are available, i.e. complete state measurement, and a sliding mode controller is designed for synchronization. For the second case, it is assumed that the output of the drive system does not contain the whole state variables of the drive system, and it is also affected by some random noise. By combination of extended Kalman filter and the sliding mode control, a synchronizing control law is proposed. As a case study, the presented algorithm is applied to the Lur’e-Genesio chaotic systems as the drive-response dynamic systems. Simulation results show the good performance of the algorithm in synchronizing the chaotic systems in presence of noisy environment.
