Binary generalized synchronization

In this paper we report for the first time on the binary generalized synchronization, when for the certain values of the coupling strength two unidirectionally coupled dynamical systems generating the aperiodic binary sequences are in the generalized synchronization regime. The presence of the binary generalized synchronization has been revealed with the help of both the auxiliary system approach and the largest conditional Lyapunov exponent calculation. The mechanism resulting in the binary generalized synchronization has been explained. The finding discussed in this paper gives a strong potential for new applications under many relevant circumstances.

On chaos control and synchronization of the commensurate fractional order Liu system

In this work, we study chaos control and synchronization of the commensurate fractional order Liu system. Based on the stability theory of fractional order systems, the conditions of local stability of nonlinear three-dimensional commensurate fractional order systems are discussed. The existence and uniqueness of solutions for a class of commensurate fractional order Liu systems are investigated. We also obtain the necessary condition for the existence of chaotic attractors in the commensurate fractional order Liu system. The effect of fractional order on chaos control of this system is revealed by showing that the commensurate fractional order Liu system is controllable just in the fractional order case when using a specific choice of controllers. Moreover, we achieve chaos synchronization between the commensurate fractional order Liu system and its integer order counterpart via function projective synchronization. Numerical simulations are used to verify the analytical results.     

A simple adaptive-feedback controller for chaos synchronization

Based on the LaSalle’s invariant theorem and Lyapunov method, a simple scheme is proposed to synchronize chaotic systems. Unlike the usual linear feedback, this scheme uses the variable feedback which is automatically adapted to a updated law. Moreover, this scheme is analytical and simple to be implemented in practice. The well-known models such as Chen system and Lü system are used to illustrate the validity of this theoretic method.     

Estimation of communication-delays through adaptive synchronization of chaos

This paper deals with adaptive synchronization of chaos in the presence of time-varying communication-delays. We consider two bidirectionally coupled systems that seek to synchronize through a signal that each system sends to the other one and is transmitted with an unknown time-varying delay. We show that an appropriate adaptive strategy can be devised that is successful in dynamically identifying the time-varying delay and in synchronizing the two systems. The performance of our strategy with respect to the choice of the initial conditions and the presence of noise in the communication channels is tested by using numerical simulations. Another advantage of our approach is that in addition to estimating the communication-delay, the adaptive strategy could be used to simultaneously identify other parameters, such as, e.g., the unknown time-varying amplitude of the received signal.     

Chaotic communication using generalized synchronization

We present a new technique for the chaotic communication of a signal using the concept of generalized synchronization. We develop a general approach for implementing our technique and illustrate it using a Rössler system driving a Lorenz system. It is demonstrated that the scheme is robust with respect to noise in the communication channel and to small parameter mismatches in the system. Finally, we discuss the advantages of this technique over existing methods and examine ways of improving the scheme.     

Generalized synchronization of chaos based on suitable separation

In this Letter, generalized synchronization with a kind of function relationship between the states of drive and response chaotic systems is achieved. From matrix measure theory, some sufficient conditions for generalized synchronization are derived through suitable separation by decomposing the system as the linear part and the nonlinear one. Simulation results are provided for illustration and verification of the proposed method.     

Generalizations of the concept of marginal synchronization of chaos

Generalizations of the concept of marginal synchronization between chaotic systems, i.e. synchronization with zero largest conditional Lyapunov exponent, are considered. Generalized marginal synchronization in drive–response systems is defined, for which the function between points of attractors of different systems is given up to a constant. Auxiliary system approach is shown to be able to detect this synchronization. Marginal synchronization in mutually coupled systems which can be viewed as drive–response systems with the response system influencing the drive system dynamics is also considered, and an example from solid-state physics is analyzed. Stability of these kinds of synchronization against changes of system parameters and noise is investigated. In drive–response systems generalized marginal synchronization is shown to be rather sensitive to the changes of parameters and may disappear either due to the loss of stability of the response system, or as a result of the blowout bifurcation. Nonlinear coupling of the drive system to the response system can stabilize marginal synchronization.     

Active sliding observer scheme based fractional chaos synchronization

In this paper, a novel observer scheme is proposed for synchronization of fractional order chaotic systems. Our approach employs a combination of a classical sliding observer and an active observer, where the active observer serves to increase the attraction strength of sliding surface. Using the theory of Lyapunov function, synchronization of the fractional order response with the fractional order drive system is achieved in both ideal and mismatched cases. By merit of fractional order differentiation and integration, i.e. differintegration formula, it is proved that state synchronization is established in a finite time. Numerical simulations are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed observer.     

A stable-manifold-based method for chaos control and synchronization

A stable-manifold-based method is proposed for chaos control and synchronization. The novelty of this new and effective method lies in that, once the suitable stable manifold according to the desired dynamic properties is constructed, the goal of control is only to force the system state to lie on the selected stable manifold because once the stable manifold is reached, the chaotic system will be guided towards the desired target. The effectiveness of the approach and idea is tested by stabilizing the Newton–Leipnik chaotic system which possesses more than one strange attractor and by synchronizing the unified chaotic system which unifies both the Lorenz system and the Chen system.     

Dynamical properties and chaos synchronization of improved Colpitts oscillators

In this paper, the dynamics and synchronization of improved Colpitts oscillators designed to operate in ultrahigh frequency range are considered. The model is described by a continuous time four-dimensional autonomous system with an exponential nonlinearity. The system is integrated numerically and various bifurcation diagrams and corresponding graphs of largest 1D Lyapunov exponent are plotted to summarize different scenarios leading to chaos. It is found that the oscillator moves from the state of fixed point motion to chaos via the usual paths of period-doubling, intermittency and interior crisis routes when monitoring the bias (i.e. power supply) in tiny ranges. In order to promote chaos-based synchronization designs of this type of oscillators, a synchronization strategy based upon the design of a nonlinear state observer is successfully adapted. The suggested approach enables synchronization to be achieved via a scalar transmitted signal which represents a suitable feature for communication applications. Numerical simulations are performed to demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed technique.     

Multi-stable chaotic attractors in generalized synchronization

In this work, for given driving and response systems, the phenomenon of multi-stable chaotic attractors existing in generalized synchronization is studied. Consider the driving system descried by a Rössler system, and the response system being a multi-scroll chaotic system, some numerical simulations are proposed. The results show that by choosing suitable coupled parameters, there are multi-stable chaotic attractors in the response system, and each of them synchronizes with the driving system. Moreover, the basins of attraction on the parameter plane and initial condition plane are analyzed.     

On the generalized exact boundary synchronization for a coupled system of wave equations

In this paper, we deliver a normalized synchronization transformation to study the generalized exact boundary synchronization for a coupled system of wave equations with Dirichlet boundary controls. The clear relationship among the generalized exact boundary synchronization, the exact boundary null controllability, and the generalized exactly synchronizable states is precisely obtained. This approach gives further a forthright decomposition for the generalized exact boundary synchronization problem, whereby, we gain directly the determination of generalized exactly synchronizable states.     

Linear generalized synchronization of continuous-time chaotic systems

This paper develops a general approach for constructing a response system to implement linear generalized synchronization (GS) with the drive continuous-time chaotic system. Some sufficient conditions of global asymptotic linear GS between the drive and response continuous-time chaotic systems are attained from rigorously modern control theory. Finally, we take Chua’s circuit as an example for illustration and verification.     

A robust method for new fractional hybrid chaos synchronization

In this paper, a robust mathematical method is proposed to study a new hybrid synchronization type, which is a combining generalized synchronization and inverse generalized synchronization. The method is based on Laplace transformation, Lyapunov stability theory of integer‐order systems and stability theory of linear fractional systems. Sufficient conditions are derived to demonstrate the coexistence of generalized synchronization and inverse generalized synchronization between different dimensional incommensurate fractional chaotic systems. Numerical test of the method is used. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

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.     

Finite-time chaos synchronization of unified chaotic system with uncertain parameters

This paper deals with the finite-time chaos synchronization of the unified chaotic system with uncertain parameters. Based on the finite-time stability theory, a control law is proposed to realize finite-time chaos synchronization for the unified chaotic system with uncertain parameters. The controller is simple, robust and only part parameters are required to be bounded. Simulation results for the Lorenz, Lü and Chen chaotic systems are presented to validate the design and the analysis.     

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.

Anti-control of chaos of single time scale brushless dc motors (BLDCM) and chaos synchronization of different order systems are studied in this paper. By addition of an external nonlinear term, we can obtain anti-control of chaos. Then, by addition of the coupling terms, by the use of Lyapunov stability theorem and by the linearization of the error dynamics, chaos synchronization between a third-order BLDCM and a second-order Duffing system are presented.
