First, an adaptive observer based on an orthogonal neural network is designed. Subsequently, the sliding mode controllers via the proposed adaptive observer are proposed for synchronization and suppression of the uncertain chaotic systems. Theoretical analysis and numerical simulation show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.     

Impulsive Control for Fractional-Order Chaotic Systems

Based on the Takagi-Sugeno （T-S） fuzzy model and linear matrix inequalities （LMfs）, some sufficient conditions are given to stabilize the fractional-order chaotic system via impulsive control. Numerical simulation shows the effectiveness of this approach.     

Synchronization Control of Two Different Chaotic Systems with Known and Unknown Parameters

Chaos synchronization of two different chaotic systems with known and unknown parameters is studied. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, two different chaotic systems with known parameters realize global synchronization via the successfully designed nonlinear controller. By employing an adaptive synchronization scheme, the synchronization of two different chaotic systems with unknown parameters is achieved. Numerical simulations validate the effectiveness of the theoretical analysis.     

Investigation of a Unified Chaotic System and Its Synchronization by Simulations*

We investigate a unified chaotic system and its synchronization including feedback synchronization and adaptive synchronization by numerical simulations. We propose a new dynamical quantity denoted by K, which connects adaptive synchronization and feedback synchronization, to analyze synchronization schemes. We find that K can estimate the smallest coupling strength for a unified chaotic system whether it is complete feedback or one-sided feedback. Based on the previous work, we also give a new dynamical method to compute the leading Lyapunov exponent.     

A General Response System Control Method Based on Backstepping Design for Synchronization of Continuous Scalar Chaotic Signal

A general response system control method for synchronization of continuous scalar chaotic signal is presented. The proposed canonical genera/response system can cover most of the well-known chaotic systems. Conversely, each of these chaotic systems can Mso be used to construct the genera/response system. Furthermore, a novel controller of the proposed response system is designed based on backstepping technique, with which the output of the genera/response system and the given continuous chaotic signal can synchronize perfectly. Two numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control method.     

Different Types of Synchronization in Time-Delayed Systems

We investigate different types of synchronization between two unidirectionally nonlinearly coupled identical delay- differential systems related to optical bistable or hybrid optical bistable devices. This system can represent some kinds of delay-differential models, i.e. Ikeda model, Vall~e model, sine-square model, Mackey Glass model, and so on. We find existence and sufficient stability conditions by theoretical analysis and test the correctness by＂ numerical simulations. Lag, complete and anticipating synchronization are observed, respectively. It is found that the time-delay system can be divided into two parts~ one is the instant term and the other is the delay term. Synchronization between two identical chaotic systems can be derived by adding a coupled term to the delay term in the driven system.     

Projective Synchronization in Time-Delayed Chaotic Systems

For the first time, we report on projective synchronization between two time delay chaotic systems with single time delays. It overcomes some limitations of the previous work, where projective synchronization has been investigated only in finite-dimensional chaotic systems, so we can achieve projective synchronization in infinitedimensional chaotic systems. We give a general method with which we can achieve projective synchronization in time-delayed chaotic systems. The method is illustrated using the famous delay-differential equations related to optical bistability. Numerical simulations fully support the analytical approach.     

Comparison of feedback control methods for a hyperchaotic Lorenz system

More and more attention has been payed to the hyperchaotic system for the huge potential applications of hyperchaotic system such as secure communication and more complex structure than chaotic system. So at present the controlling of the hyperchaotic system simply and effectively is a frontier topic of nonlinear science. In this Letter, for the latest hyperchaotic Lorenz system, four feedback control methods were studied with analytic solution and necessary numerical simulations. It is found that the enhancing feedback control approach is the best choice of the given four feedback control methods for its relatively simple external inputs and relatively small necessary feedback coefficient after comparison. The conclusion is a helpful for the choice of control methods of any other chaotic and hyperchaotic systems.     

Chaos Synchronization Criterion and Its Optimizations for a Nonlinear Transducer System via Linear State Error Feedback Control

Global chaos synchronization of two identical nonlinear transducer systems is investigated via linear state error feedback control. The sufficient criterion for global chaos synchronization is derived firstly by the Gerschgorin disc theorem and the stability theory of linear time-varied systems. Then this sufficient criterion is further optimized in the sense of reducing the lower bounds of the coupling coefficients with two methods, one based on Gerschgorin disc theorem itself and the other based on Lyapunov direct method. Finally, two optimized criteria are compared theoretically.     

The chaotification of discrete Hopfield neural networks via impulsive control

The chaotification of discrete Hopfield neural networks is studied with impulsive control techniques. No matter whether the original systems are stable or not, chaotilication theorems for discrete Hopfield neural networks are derived, respectively. Finally, the effectiveness of the theoretical results is illustrated by some numerical examples.     

Synchronization and control of chaos in coupled chaotic multimode Nd:YAG lasers

In this Letter we numerically investigate the dynamics of a system of two coupled chaotic multimode Nd:YAG lasers with two mode and three mode outputs. Unidirectional and bidirectional coupling schemes are adopted; intensity time series plots, phase space plots and synchronization plots are used for studying the dynamics. Quality of synchronization is measured using correlation index plots. It is found that for laser with two mode output bidirectional direct coupling scheme is found to be effective in achieving complete synchronization, control of chaos and amplification in output intensity. For laser with three mode output, bidirectional difference coupling scheme gives much better chaotic synchronization as compared to unidirectional difference coupling but at the cost of higher coupling strength. We also conclude that the coupling scheme and system properties play an important role in determining the type of synchronization exhibited by the system.     

Prediction based chaos control via a new neural network

In this Letter, a new chaos control scheme based on chaos prediction is proposed. To perform chaos prediction, a new neural network architecture for complex nonlinear approximation is proposed. And the difficulty in building and training the neural network is also reduced. Simulation results of Logistic map and Lorenz system show the effectiveness of the proposed chaos control scheme and the proposed neural network.     

Stability conditions, hyperchaos and control in a novel fractional order hyperchaotic system

The stability conditions in fractional order hyperchaotic systems are derived. These conditions are applied to a novel fractional order hyperchaotic system. The proposed system is also shown to exhibit hyperchaos for orders less than 4. Based on the Routh-Hurwitz conditions, the conditions for controlling hyperchaos via feedback control are also obtained. A specific condition for controlling only fractional order hyperchaotic systems is achieved. Numerical simulations are used to verify the theoretical analysis.

Finally, the effectiveness of the theoretical results is illustrated by some numerical examples.     

Synchronization of Complex Network with Drivingly Coupled Scheme

We present a network model with a new coupled scheme which is the generalization of drive-response systems called a drivingly coupled network. The synchronization of the network is investigated by numerical simulations based on Lorenz systems. By calculating the largest transversal Lyapunov exponents of such network, the stable and unstable regions of synchronous state for eigenvalues in such network can be obtained and many kinds of drivingly coupled arrays based on Lorenz systems such as all-to-all, star-shape, ring-shape and chain-shape networks are considered.     

A three-scroll chaotic attractor

This Letter introduces a new chaotic member to the three-dimensional smooth autonomous quadratic system family, which derived from the classical Lorenz system but exhibits a three-scroll chaotic attractor. Interestingly, the two other scrolls are symmetry related with respect to the z-axis as for the Lorenz attractor, but the third scroll of this three-scroll chaotic attractor is around the z-axis. Some basic dynamical properties, such as Lyapunov exponents, fractal dimension, Poincaré map and chaotic dynamical behaviors of the new chaotic system are investigated, either numerically or analytically. The obtained results clearly show this is a new chaotic system and deserves further detailed investigation.     

Self-Stable Chaos Control of dc-dc Converter

A new concept related to self-stable chaos control is first put forward, and its theoretical basis and realization are presented from the frequency-domain perspective. With a new analogous-circuit realization of this control its applications in the voltage-mode Buck converter is discussed. The harmonic-balance method is applied to determine the control range of the control parameter. The experiment results given in the last part confirm the validity of the proposed control method.     

Chaotic Dynamics of a Periodically Modulated Josephson Junction

We study the chaotic dynamics of a periodically modulated Josephson junction with damping. The general solution of the first-order perturbed equation is constructed by using the direct perturbation technique. It is theoretically found that the boundedness conditions of the general solution contain the Melnikov chaotic criterion. When the perturbation conditions cannot be satisfied, numerical simulations demonstrate that the system can step into chaos through a period doubling route with the increase of the amplitude of the modulating term. Regulating specific parameters can effectively suppress the chaos.     

Filter based non-invasive control of chaos in Buck converter

A non-invasive method for controlling chaos in the voltage-mode Buck converter is proposed by using a hybrid active filter based feedback controller in this Letter. The harmonic balance method is applied to obtaining the bifurcation-point equations of the controlled system. Hence, a stability-boundary diagram is constructed, through which the control parameters are chosen correctly. The results of simulation and experiment are given after all.     

Equilibrium-torus bifurcation in nonsmooth systems

Considering a set of two coupled nonautonomous differential equations with discontinuous right-hand sides describing the behavior of a DC/DC power converter, we discuss a border-collision bifurcation that can lead to the birth of a two-dimensional invariant torus from a stable node equilibrium point. We obtain the chart of dynamic modes and show that there is a region of parameter space in which the system has a single stable node equilibrium point. Under variation of the parameters, this equilibrium may disappear as it collides with a discontinuity boundary between two smooth regions in the phase space. The disappearance of the equilibrium point is accompanied by the soft appearance of an unstable focus period-1 orbit surrounded by a resonant or ergodic torus.Detailed numerical calculations are supported by a theoretical investigation of the normal form map that represents the piecewise linear approximation to our system in the neighbourhood of the border. We determine the functional relationships between the parameters of the normal form map and the actual system and illustrate how the normal form theory can predict the bifurcation behaviour along the border-collision equilibrium-torus bifurcation curve.
