Function projective synchronization for fractional-order chaotic systems

This letter investigates the function projective synchronization between fractional-order chaotic systems. Based on the stability theory of fractional-order systems and tracking control, a controller for the synchronization of two fractional-order chaotic systems is designed. This technique is applied to achieve synchronization between the fractional-order Lorenz systems with different orders, and achieve synchronization between the fractional-order Lorenz system and fractional-order Chen system. The numerical simulations demonstrate the validity and feasibility of the proposed method.     

Parameter identification and synchronization of fractional-order chaotic systems

The knowledge about parameters and order is very important for synchronization of fractional-order chaotic systems. In this article, identification of parameters and order of fractional-order chaotic systems is converted to an optimization problem. Particle swarm optimization algorithm is used to solve this optimization problem. Based on the above parameter identification, synchronization of the fractional-order Lorenz, Chen and a novel system (commensurate or incommensurate order) is derived using active control method. The new fractional-order chaotic system has four-scroll chaotic attractors. The existence and uniqueness of solutions for the new fractional-order system are also investigated theoretically. Simulation results signify the performance of the work.     

Robust stabilization and synchronization of a class of fractional-order chaotic systems via a novel fractional sliding mode controller

This paper proposes a novel fractional-order sliding mode approach for stabilization and synchronization of a class of fractional-order chaotic systems. Based on the fractional calculus a stable integral type fractional-order sliding surface is introduced. Using the fractional Lyapunov stability theorem, a single sliding mode control law is proposed to ensure the existence of the sliding motion in finite time. The proposed control scheme is applied to stabilize/synchronize a class of fractional-order chaotic systems in the presence of model uncertainties and external disturbances. Some numerical simulations are performed to confirm the theoretical results of the paper. It is worth noticing that the proposed fractional-order sliding mode controller can be applied to control a broad range of fractional-order dynamical systems.     

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.

Based on the stability theory of fractional order systems, this paper analyses the synchronization conditions of the fractional order chaotic systems with activation feedback method. And the synchronization of commensurate order hyperchaotic Lorenz system of the base order 0.98 is implemented based on this method. Numerical simulations show the effectiveness of this method in a class of fractional order chaotic systems.     

Adaptive synchronization of identical chaotic and hyper-chaotic systems with uncertain parameters

This paper addresses a unified mathematical expression describing a class of chaotic systems, for which the problem of adaptive synchronization between two nearly identical chaotic and hyper-chaotic systems with uncertain parameters is studied. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, a novel adaptive synchronization controller is designed, and the analytic expression of the controller and the adaptive laws of parameters are developed. The controller is simple and systemic, no parameters of the slave system are included in the controller, and, for some specific error systems, the controller can be simplified ulteriorly. New chaotic and a new hyper-chaotic systems with uncertain parameters are taken as the examples to show the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive synchronization method.

Synchronization of N-coupled incommensurate fractional-order chaotic systems with ring connection

In this paper, based on the stability theorem of linear fractional systems, a necessary condition is given to synchronize N-coupled incommensurate fractional-order chaotic systems with ring connection. Chaos synchronization is studied by utilizing the coupling method that includes unidirectional and bidirectional coupling. The main contribution of this work is to design the coupling parameters in which it is shown that our proposed controller does stabilize error dynamics around all of equilibriums of master system. Finally, the claims are justified through a set of simulations and results coincide with the theoretical analysis.     

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.     

Projective synchronization between different fractional‐order hyperchaotic systems with uncertain parameters using proposed modified adaptive projective synchronization technique

In the present article, the authors have proposed a modified projective adaptive synchronization technique for fractional‐order chaotic systems. The adaptive projective synchronization controller and identification parameters law are developed on the basis of Lyapunov direct stability theory. The proposed method is successfully applied for the projective synchronization between fractional‐order hyperchaotic Lü system as drive system and fractional‐order hyperchaotic Lorenz chaotic system as response system. A comparison between the effects on synchronization time due to the presence of fractional‐order time derivatives for modified projective synchronization method and proposed modified adaptive projective synchronization technique is the key feature of the present article. Numerical simulation results, which are carried out using Adams–Boshforth–Moulton method show that the proposed technique is effective, convenient and also faster for projective synchronization of fractional‐order nonlinear dynamical systems.

On the fractional-order extended Kalman filter and its application to chaotic cryptography in noisy environment

In this paper via a novel method of discretized continuous-time Kalman filter, the problem of synchronization and cryptography in fractional-order systems has been investigated in presence of noisy environment for process and output signals. The fractional-order Kalman filter equation, applicable for linear systems, and its extension called the extended Kalman filter, which can be used for nonlinear systems, are derived. The result is utilized for chaos synchronization with the aim of cryptography while the transmitter system is fractional-order, and both the transmitter and transmission channel are noisy. The fractional-order stochastic chaotic Chen system is then presented to apply the proposed method for chaotic signal cryptography. The results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Synchronization of a class of fractional-order chaotic systems via a scalar transmitted signal

In this paper, a drive-response synchronization method with linear output error feedback is presented for synchronizing a class of fractional-order chaotic systems via a scalar transmitted signal. Based on stability theory of fractional-order systems and linear system theory, a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of the feedback gain vector such that global synchronization between the fractional-order drive system and response system can be achieved and its design method are given. This synchronization approach that is simple, global and theoretically rigorous enables synchronization of fractional-order chaotic systems be achieved in a systematic way and does not require the computation of the conditional Lyapunov exponents. An example is used to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed synchronization method.     

Synchronizing chaotic systems using control based on a special matrix structure and extending to fractional chaotic systems

This work presents a direct approach to design stabilizing controller based on a special matrix structure to synchronize chaotic systems and extends the approach to synchronize fractional chaotic systems. With this method, chaos synchronization is implemented in Lorenz chaotic systems with known parameters and the same to Lorenz chaotic systems with unknown parameters. Especially, fractional Lorenz chaotic system with unknown parameters is synchronized by fractional Chen chaotic system too. Numerical simulations confirm the effectiveness of the method proposed.     

Modified generalized projective synchronization of a new fractional-order hyperchaotic system and its application to secure communication

This paper presents a new fractional-order hyperchaotic system. The chaotic behaviors of this system in phase portraits are analyzed by the fractional calculus theory and computer simulations. Numerical results have revealed that hyperchaos does exist in the new fractional-order four-dimensional system with order less than 4 and the lowest order to have hyperchaos in this system is 3.664. The existence of two positive Lyapunov exponents further verifies our results. Furthermore, a novel modified generalized projective synchronization (MGPS) for the fractional-order chaotic systems is proposed based on the stability theory of the fractional-order system, where the states of the drive and response systems are asymptotically synchronized up to a desired scaling matrix. The unpredictability of the scaling factors in projective synchronization can additionally enhance the security of communication. Thus MGPS of the new fractional-order hyperchaotic system is applied to secure communication. Computer simulations are done to verify the proposed methods and the numerical results show that the obtained theoretic results are feasible and efficient.     

Image encryption based on synchronization of fractional chaotic systems

This paper deals with a synchronization scheme for two fractional chaotic systems which is applied in image encryption. Based on Pecora and Carroll (PC) synchronization, fractional-order Lorenz-like system forms a master–slave configuration, and the sufficient conditions are derived to realize synchronization between these two systems via the Laplace transformation theory. An image encryption algorithm is introduced where the original image is encoded by a nonlinear function of a fractional chaotic state. Simulation results show that the original image is well masked in the cipher texts and recovered successfully through chaotic signals. Further, the cryptanalysis is conducted in detail through histogram, information entropy, key space and sensitivity to verify the high security.     

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.     

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.     

Chaos synchronization for a class of nonlinear oscillators with fractional order

In this paper, a special kind of nonlinear chaotic oscillator, the Qi oscillator, is studied in detail. Since such systems are shown to possess a relatively wide spectral bandwidth, it is considerably beneficial to practical engineering in the secure communication field. The chaos synchronization problem of the fractional-order Qi oscillators coupled in a master-slave pattern is examined by applying three different kinds of methods: the nonlinear feedback method, the one-way coupling method and the method based on the state observer. Suitable synchronization conditions are derived by using the Lyapunov stability theory, and most importantly, a sufficient and necessary synchronization condition for the case with fractional order between 1 and 2 is presented. Results of numerical simulations validate the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed schemes.
