Lag synchronization of hyperchaotic complex nonlinear systems

In this paper, we study the lag synchronization (LS) of n-dimensional hyperchaotic complex nonlinear systems. The idea of the nonlinear control technique based on the complex Lyapunov function with lag in time is used to propose a scheme to investigate LS of hyperchaotic attractors of these systems. Both complex Lyapunov and control functions are introduced. For illustration, the scheme is applied to two hyperchaotic complex Lorenz systems. The real and complex control functions are derived analytically to achieve LS and to show that the complex error dynamical systems are globally stable. Numerical results are calculated to test the validity of the analytical expressions of control functions to achieve LS of two identical hyperchaotic attractors.     

Projective synchronization of a class of chaotic systems by dynamic feedback control method

This paper investigates the projective synchronization problem of a class of chaotic systems in arbitrary dimensions. Firstly, a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of the projective synchronization problem is presented. And this condition is equivalent to check whether a group of algebraic equations about \(\alpha \) have solutions or not. Secondly, an algorithm is proposed to obtain all the solutions of the projective synchronization problem. Thirdly, a simple and physically implementable controller is designed to ensure the realization of the projective synchronization. Finally, three numerical examples are provided to verify the effectiveness and the validity of the proposed results.     

Phase and antiphase synchronization of two identical hyperchaotic complex nonlinear systems

A scheme is designed to achieve phase synchronization (PS) and antiphase synchronization (APS) for an n-dimensional hyperchaotic complex nonlinear system. For this scheme, we have used the idea of an active control technique based on Lyapunov stability analysis to determine analytically the complex control functions which are needed to achieve PS and APS. We applied this scheme, as an example, to study PS and APS of hyperchaotic attractors of two identical hyperchaotic complex Lorenz systems. These complex systems appear in many important fields of physics and engineering. Our scheme can also be applied to two different hyperchaotic complex systems, for which PS and APS have not been investigated, as far as we know, in the literature. Numerical results are plotted to show phases and amplitudes of these hyperchaotic attractors, thus demonstrating that PS and APS are achieved. The bifurcation diagrams are computed for a wide range of parameters of the system parameters and are found to be symmetrical about the horizontal axis for APS, while they lack any symmetry for PS.     

Finite-time non-fragile boundary feedback control for a class of nonlinear parabolic systems

In this paper, the finite-time non-fragile boundary feedback control problem is investigated for a class of nonlinear parabolic systems, where both the multiplicative and additive controller gain variations are considered to describe the actuator parameter perturbation. Non-fragile boundary control strategies are designed with respect to two controller gain variations via collocated or non-collocated boundary measurement, respectively. In light of the finite-time stability and Lyapunov-based techniques, some sufficient conditions are presented in terms of linear matrix inequalities such that the resulting closed-loop system is well-posedness and practically finite-time stable. Finally, numerical examples are given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed design method.

     

Robust synchronization of nonlinear SISO systems using sliding mode control

We present a robust algorithm to synchronize two different single-input/single-output (SISO) nonlinear systems connected in a master/slave scheme, where the relative degree of the master system (r _m) is greater than or equal to the relative degree of the slave (r _s). The sliding mode control technique is used to design the coupling signal. This discontinuous controller renders the closed-loop system robust with respect to matched bounded disturbances. The synchronization objective is to match the first r _s normal coordinates. Depending on the characteristics of the involved systems, the closed loop system can display full or partial, identical or generalized synchronization. The performance of the proposed controlled synchronization is illustrated numerically and experimentally.     

Prescribed performance-based backstepping design for synchronization of cross-strict feedback hyperchaotic systems with uncertainties

For a class of cross-strict feedback hyperchaotic systems with unmatched uncertainties, on the basis of prescribed performance and uncertainty estimator, a backstepping design method is proposed. Uncertainty estimator is introduced to estimate the uncertainties in systems. Backstepping control is used to deal with the unmatched uncertainties. The prescribed performance control method improves the performance of the synchronization system. Numerical simulations are given to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed control scheme.     

Modified projective and modified function projective synchronization of a class of real nonlinear systems and a class of complex nonlinear systems

The modified projective and modified function projective synchronization of a class of chaotic real nonlinear systems, or a class of chaotic complex nonlinear systems, have been widely reported in the previous studies, respectively. In the paper, the modified projective and modified function projective synchronization between a class of chaotic real nonlinear systems and a class of chaotic complex nonlinear systems are first investigated. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, the drive real system and response complex system can be synchronized up to the desired scaling constants and functions, respectively. The corresponding numerical simulations are performed to verify and demonstrate the validity and feasibility of the presented idea.     

Output feedback stabilization based on dynamic surface control for a class of uncertain stochastic nonlinear systems

In this paper, the dynamic surface control (DSC) algorithm is proposed for a class of stochastic nonlinear systems with nonminimum phase and the standard output-feedback form. The proposed algorithm is a stochastic vision by combining the traditional back-stepping together with the DSC technique, which can overcome the problem of ‘explosion of complexity’ in the back-stepping designing procedure for the stochastic nonlinear systems. Thus, it can reduce the computation complexity and is easy to be used in the actual implementation. It is shown that all the signals of the resulting closed-loop system are uniformly ultimately bounded.     

Adaptive synchronization of the energy resource systems with mismatched parameters via linear feedback control

Synchronization of energy resource systems with mismatched parameters is investigated. An adaptive linear feedback control scheme for the synchronization of energy resource systems is proposed when the parameters of the master system are unknown and different from 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. Finally, numerical simulations are performed to verify the proposed results.

Fractional generalized synchronization in a class of nonlinear fractional order systems

Generalized synchronization in nonlinear fractional order systems occurs whether the states of one system by means of a functional mapping are identical to states of another. This mapping can be obtained if there exists a fractional differential primitive element whose elements are fractional derivatives which generate a differential transcendence basis. In this contribution we investigate the fractional generalized synchronization (FGS) problem for a class of strictly different nonlinear fractional order systems and we consider the master-slave synchronization scheme. As well as, of a natural manner we construct a fractional generalized observability canonical form, we introduce a fractional algebraic observability property, and we design a fractional dynamical controller able to achieve synchronization. These particular forms of FGS are illustrated with numerical results.

Robust sliding mode control for a class of nonlinear systems using inertial delay control

This paper proposes a robust sliding mode control strategy for an uncertain nonlinear system subjected to time-varying disturbance. The class of system considered includes state-dependent nonlinearity in the input vector (in addition to the plant matrix). The control scheme uses inertial delay control to estimate the lumped uncertainty. The proposed control enforces sliding without using the discontinuous control and without requiring the knowledge of uncertainties or their bounds. The overall stability of the system is proved. The effectiveness of the proposed strategy is verified for model following and robust performance, by simulation of an illustrative example and an application to inverted pendulum system.

A general nonlinear adaptive control scheme for finite-time synchronization of chaotic systems with uncertain parameters and nonlinear inputs

In this paper, the problem of finite-time chaos synchronization between two different uncertain chaotic systems with unknown parameters and input nonlinearities is investigated. It is assumed that both master and slave systems are perturbed by unknown model uncertainties, external disturbances, and fully unknown parameters. Proper update laws are proposed to estimate the systems?? unknown parameters. Based on the update laws and finite-time control technique, a robust adaptive controller is introduced to guarantee the convergence of the slave system trajectories to the trajectories of the master system in a given finite time. Two illustrative examples are presented to illustrate the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed finite-time controller and to validate the theoretical results of the paper.     

Projectively lag synchronization and uncertain parameters identification of a new hyperchaotic system

This paper investigates projectively lag synchronization of a new hyperchaotic system (proposed by Yang et al. in Nonlinear Anal., Real World Appl., 10:1601, 2009), with certain/uncertain parameters. Based on the Lyapunov function constructing method and application of the Babarǎt lemma, projectively lag synchronization is achieved for the new hyperchaotic system by designing nonlinear controllers. Furthermore, a novel method is proposed to identify unknown parameters based on projectively lag synchronization of the new hyperchaotic system. Finally, several numerical simulations are given to verify and test the correctness and effectiveness of the novel methods we proposed.     

Adaptive fuzzy backstepping output feedback control for a class of MIMO time-delay nonlinear systems based on high-gain observer

In this paper, an adaptive fuzzy backstepping output feedback control approach is developed for a class of multiinput and multioutput (MIMO) nonlinear systems with time delays and immeasurable states. Fuzzy logic systems are employed to approximate the unknown nonlinear functions, and an adaptive fuzzy high-gain observer is developed to estimate the unmeasured states. Using the designed high-gain observer, and combining the fuzzy adaptive control theory with the backstepping approach, an adaptive fuzzy output feedback control is constructed recursively. It is proved that all the signals of the closed-loop adaptive control system are semiglobally uniformly ultimately bounded (SUUB) and the tracking error converges to a small neighborhood of the origin.
