Chaos control and generalized projective synchronization of heavy symmetric chaotic gyroscope systems via Gaussian radial basis adaptive variable structure control

This paper proposes the chaos control and the generalized projective synchronization methods for heavy symmetric gyroscope systems via Gaussian radial basis adaptive variable structure control. Because of the nonlinear terms of the gyroscope system, the system exhibits chaotic motions. Occasionally, the extreme sensitivity to initial states in a system operating in chaotic mode can be very destructive to the system because of unpredictable behavior. In order to improve the performance of a dynamic system or avoid the chaotic phenomena, it is necessary to control a chaotic system with a periodic motion beneficial for working with a particular condition. As chaotic signals are usually broadband and noise like, synchronized chaotic systems can be used as cipher generators for secure communication. This paper presents chaos synchronization of two identical chaotic motions of symmetric gyroscopes. In this paper, the switching surfaces are adopted to ensure the stability of the error dynamics in variable structure control. Using the neural variable structure control technique, control laws are established which guarantees the chaos control and the generalized projective synchronization of unknown gyroscope systems. In the neural variable structure control, Gaussian radial basis functions are utilized to on-line estimate the system dynamic functions. Also, the adaptation laws of the on-line estimator are derived in the sense of Lyapunov function. Thus, the unknown gyro systems can be guaranteed to be asymptotically stable. Also, the proposed method can achieve the control objectives. Numerical simulations are presented to verify the proposed control and synchronization methods. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed methods is discussed.     

Anti-synchronization of uncertain unified chaotic systems with dead-zone nonlinearity

This paper addresses chaos anti-synchronization of uncertain unified chaotic systems with dead-zone input nonlinearity. Using the sliding mode control technique and Lyapunov stability theory, a proportional–integral (PI) switching surface is proposed to ensure the stability of the closed-loop error system in sliding mode. Then a sliding mode controller (SMC) is proposed to guarantee the hitting of the switching surface even with uncertainties and the control input containing dead-zone nonlinearity. Some simulation results are included to demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed synchronization scheme.

Adaptive terminal sliding mode control subject to input nonlinearity for synchronization of chaotic gyros

Under the existence of system uncertainties, external disturbances, and input nonlinearity, complete synchronization and anti-synchronization between two chaotic gyros are achieved by introducing a novel adaptive terminal sliding mode (ATSM) controller. In the literature, by taking account of input nonlinearity, the magnitudes of bounded nonlinear dynamics of synchronous error system were required in the designed sliding mode controller. In this study, the proposed ATSM controller associated with time-varying feedback gains can tackle nonlinear dynamics according to the novel adaptive rules. These feedback gains are not necessary to be determined in advance but updated by the adaptive rules without known the magnitudes of bounded nonlinear dynamics, system uncertainties, and external disturbances. Sufficient conditions to guarantee stable synchronization are given in the sense of the Lyapunov stability theorem, and the numerical simulations are performed to verify the effectiveness of presented schemes.     

Synchronization and anti-synchronization coexist in Chen–Lee chaotic systems

This study demonstrates that synchronization and anti-synchronization can coexist in Chen–Lee chaotic systems by direct linear coupling. Based on Lyapunov’s direct method, a linear controller was designed to assure that two different types of synchronization can simultaneously be achieved. Further, the hybrid projective synchronization of Chen–Lee chaotic systems was studied using a nonlinear control scheme. The nonlinear controller was designed according to the Lyapunov stability theory to guarantee the hybrid projective synchronization, including synchronization, anti-synchronization, and projective synchronization. Finally, numerical examples are presented in order to illustrate the proposed synchronization approach.     

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.     

Synchronization and anti-synchronization of chaotic oscillators under input saturation

This paper addresses the design of simple state feedback controllers for synchronization and anti-synchronization of chaotic oscillators under input saturation and disturbance. By employing sector condition, linear matrix inequality (LMI)-based sufficient conditions are derived to design (global or local) controllers for chaos synchronization. The proposed local synchronization strategy guarantees a region of stability in terms of difference between states of the master–slave systems. This region of stability can be enlarged by means of an LMI-based optimization algorithm, through which asymptotic synchronization of chaotic oscillators can be ensured for a large difference in their initial conditions. Further, a novel LMI-based robust control strategy is developed, for local synchronization of input-constrained chaotic oscillators, by providing an upper bound on synchronization error in terms of disturbance and initial conditions of chaotic systems. Moreover, the proposed robust state feedback control methodology is modified to provide an inaugural treatment for robust anti-synchronization of chaotic systems under input saturation and disturbance. The results of the proposed methodologies are verified through numerical simulations for synchronization and anti-synchronization of the master–slave chaotic Chua’s circuits under input saturation.     

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.     

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.

Unknown nonlinear chaotic gyros synchronization using adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control with unknown dead-zone input

In this paper, the problem of synchronizing two chaotic gyros in the presence of uncertainties, external disturbances and dead-zone nonlinearity in the control input is studied while the structure of the gyros, parameters of the dead-zone and the bounds of uncertainties and external disturbances are unknown. The dead-zone nonlinearity in the control input might cause the perturbed chaotic system to show unpredictable behavior. This is due to the high sensitivity of these systems to small changes in their parameters. Thereby, the effect of these issues should not be ignored in the control design for these systems. In order to eliminate the effects from the dead-zone nonlinearity, in this paper, a robust adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control scheme is proposed to overcome the synchronization problem for a class of unknown nonlinear chaotic gyros. The main contribution of our paper in comparison with other works that attempt to solve the problem of dead-zone in the synchronization of chaotic gyros is that we assume that the structure of the system, uncertainties, external disturbances, and dead-zone are fully unknown. Simulation results are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Full state hybrid projective synchronization in continuous-time chaotic (hyperchaotic) systems

Chaos synchronization, as an important topic, has become an active research subject in nonlinear science. Over the past two decades, chaos synchronization between nonlinear systems has been extensively studied, and many types of synchronization have been announced. This paper introduces another novel type of chaos synchronization – full state hybrid projective synchronization (FSHPS), which includes complete synchronization, anti-synchronization and projective synchronization as its special item. Based on the Lyapunov’s direct method, the general FSHPS scheme is given and illustrated with Lorenz chaotic system and hyperchaotic Chen system as examples. Numerical simulations are used to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.     

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.     

Switched modified function projective synchronization of hyperchaotic Qi system with uncertain parameters

This work is involved with switched modified function projective synchronization of two identical Qi hyperchaotic systems using adaptive control method. Switched synchronization of chaotic systems in which a state variable of the drive system synchronize with a different state variable of the response system is a promising type of synchronization as it provides greater security in secure communication. Modified function projective synchronization with the unpredictability of scaling functions can enhance security. Recently formulated hyperchaotic Qi system in the hyperchaotic mode has an extremely broad frequency bandwidth of high magnitudes, verifying its unusual random nature and indicating its great potential for some relevant engineering applications such as secure communications. By Lyapunove stability theory, the adaptive control law and the parameter update law are derived to make the state of two chaotic systems modified function projective synchronized. Synchronization under the effect of noise is also considered. Numerical simulations are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive controllers.     

Synchronization and anti-synchronization of new uncertain fractional-order modified unified chaotic systems via novel active pinning control

This paper discusses the synchronization and anti-synchronization of new uncertain fractional-order unified chaotic systems (UFOUCS). Based on the idea of active control, a novel active pinning control strategy is presented, which only needs a state of new UFOUCS. The proposed controller can achieve synchronization between a response system and a drive system, and ensure the synchronized robust stability of new UFOUCS. Numerical simulations of new UFOUCS show that the controller can make fractional-order unified chaotic systems (FOUCS) achieve synchronization or anti-synchronization in a quite short period and both are of good robust stability.     

Synchronization and anti-synchronization of Lu and Bhalekar–Gejji chaotic systems using nonlinear active control

This paper aims at synchronization and anti-synchronization between Lu chaotic system, a member of unified chaotic system, and recently developed Bhalekar–Gejji chaotic system, a system which cannot be derived from the member of unified chaotic system. These synchronization and anti-synchronization have been achieved by using nonlinear active control since the parameters of both the systems are known. Lyapunov stability theory is used and required condition is derived to ensure the stability of error dynamics. Controller is designed by using the sum of relevant variables in chaotic systems. Simulation results suggest that proposed scheme is working satisfactorily.     

Synchronization of fractional‐order chaotic systems with disturbances via novel fractional‐integer integral sliding mode control and application to neuron models

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.     

A new hyper-chaotic system and its synchronization

This paper presents a new hyper-chaotic system obtained by adding a nonlinear controller to the third equation of the three-dimensional autonomous Chen–Lee chaotic system. Computer simulations demonstrated the hyper-chaotic dynamic behaviors of the system. Numerical results revealed that the new hyper-chaotic system possesses two positive exponents. It was also found that the structure of the hyper-chaotic attractors is more complex than those of the Chen–Lee chaotic system. Furthermore, the hybrid projective synchronization (HPS) of the new hyper-chaotic systems was studied using a nonlinear feedback control. The nonlinear controller was designed according to Lyapunov’s direct method to guarantee HPS, which includes synchronization, anti-synchronization, and projective synchronization. Numerical examples are presented in order to illustrate HPS.

The disturbances are considered both in the drive system and the response system. The sufficient conditions for the modified projective synchronization both the non-identical and identical chaotic systems are presented. The corresponding numerical simulations are provided to illuminate the effectiveness of the proposed active sliding mode controllers.     

Chaos control of uncertain time‐delay chaotic systems with input dead‐zone nonlinearity

This article presents an adaptive sliding mode control (SMC) scheme for the stabilization problem of uncertain time‐delay chaotic systems with input dead‐zone nonlinearity. The algorithm is based on SMC, adaptive control, and linear matrix inequality technique. Using Lyapunov stability theorem, the proposed control scheme guarantees the stability of overall closed‐loop uncertain time‐delay chaotic system with input dead‐zone nonlinearity. It is shown that the state trajectories converge to zero asymptotically in the presence of input dead‐zone nonlinearity, time‐delays, nonlinear real‐valued functions, parameter uncertainties, and external disturbances simultaneously. The selection of sliding surface and the design of control law are two important issues, which have been addressed. Moreover, the knowledge of upper bound of uncertainties is not required. The reaching phase and chattering phenomenon are eliminated. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed scheme. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
