Impulsive synchronization of chaotic Lur'e systems via partial states

In this Letter, the problem of impulsive synchronization of two identical Lur'e systems via partial states is studied. The problem arises in the situation when only partial states of the driven systems are available. By using the method of the variation of parameters for linear impulsive systems and some analysis technique, a sufficient condition for the existence of the impulsive control law for synchronization via partial states is derived. The sufficient condition is given in terms of linear matrix inequalities concerning the interconnection matrices. By using this result, we propose a new impulsive synchronization scheme for a class of Lur'e systems. The new impulsive synchronization scheme only exerts the impulsive input on partial states of the driven system and is characterized by a set of conditions related to the impulsive interval bound, the impulsive magnitude and a coupling condition between them. The proposed impulsive synchronization method is illustrated through Chua's circuit.     

Chaos synchronization of unified chaotic systems via LMI

This Letter focuses on the master-slave synchronization problem of the unified chaotic systems. Based on Lyapunov stability theory and linear matrix inequality (LMI) formulation, a simple linear feedback control law is obtained to make the state of two identical unified chaotic systems asymptotically synchronized. Simulation results have illustrated the effectiveness of the proposed chaos synchronization solution.     

Novel vibrational resonance in multistable systems

We investigate the role of multistable states on the occurrence of vibrational resonance in a periodic potential system driven by both a low-frequency and a high-frequency periodic force in both underdamped and overdamped limits. In both cases, when the amplitude of the high-frequency force is varied, the response amplitude at the low-frequency exhibits a series of resonance peaks and approaches a limiting value. Using a theoretical approach, we analyse the mechanism of multiresonance in terms of the resonant frequency and the stability of the equilibrium points of the equation of motion of the slow variable. In the overdamped system, the response amplitude is always higher than in the absence of the high-frequency force. However, in the underdamped system, this happens only if the low-frequency is less than 1. In the underdamped system, the response amplitude is maximum when the equilibrium point around which slow oscillations take place is maximally stable and minimum at the transcritical bifurcation. And in the overdamped system, it is maximum at the transcritical bifurcation and minimum when the associated equilibrium point is maximally stable. When the periodicity of the potential is truncated, the system displays only a few resonance peaks.     

Vibrational resonance in fractional-order overdamped multistable systems

We investigated the vibrational resonance in fractional-order overdamped multistable systems theoretically and numerically. For a given fractional order p, our results show that the response amplitude exhibits a series of peaks as the frequency or the amplitude of the high frequency input varies. However, when the low-frequency input increases, the response amplitude exhibits unimodal resonance for 1?<?p?<?2. Additionally, for different values of p, whether the response amplitude changes monotonically depends on the degree of spatial potential asymmetry. The mechanism by which p affects the resonance behavior is analyzed. Our results indicate that the value of p affects the resonance behavior by either altering the conditions under which the response amplitude attains its extreme values, or by altering the oscillating frequency of the response amplitude with varying systematic parameters.

Generalized projective synchronization of chaotic systems via adaptive learning control

In this paper, a learning control approach is applied to the generalized projective synchronisation (GPS) of different chaotic systems with unknown periodically time-varying parameters. Using the Lyapunov--Krasovskii functional stability theory, a differential-difference mixed parametric learning law and an adaptive learning control law are constructed to make the states of two different chaotic systems asymptotically synchronised. The scheme is successfully applied to the generalized projective synchronisation between the Lorenz system and Chen system. Moreover, numerical simulations results are used to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.     

Hybrid synchronization of hyperchaotic CAI systems via sliding mode control

In this paper, we investigate the hybrid chaos synchronization of identical hyper-chaotic CAI systems by sliding mode control. In hybrid chaos synchronization of master and slave systems, the odd states of two systems are completely synchronized, while their even states are anti-synchronized. The stability results derived in this paper for hybrid chaos synchronization of identical hyper-chaotic CAI systems are established using Lyapunov stability. Since the Lyapunov exponents are not required for these calculations, the sliding mode control is very effective and convenient to achieve hybrid chaos synchronization of the identical hyper-chaotic CAI systems. Numerical simulations are shown to validate and demonstrate the effectiveness of the synchronization schemes derived in this paper.     

Stochastic linear generalized synchronization of chaotic systems via robust control

In this Letter, based on robust control, we provide a general theoretical result on stochastic linear generalized synchronization (GS) of chaotic systems. Given a driving system with noise perturbations and a linear synchronization function, a response system is developed easily according to the scheme derived here. By introducing the Lyapunov stability theory and linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), the condition for synchronization is proved to be effective. Finally, the Lorenz system is taken for illustration and verification.     

Robust synchronization of chaotic systems via adaptive sliding mode control

This Letter investigates the synchronization problem for a general class of chaotic systems. Using the sliding mode control technique, an adaptive control law is established to guarantee synchronization of the master and slave systems even when unknown parameters and external disturbances are present. In contrast to the previous works, the structure of slave system is simple and need not be identical to the master system. Furthermore, a novel proportional-integral (PI) switching surface is proposed to simplify the task of assigning the performance of the closed-loop error system in sliding mode. An illustrative example of Chua's circuit is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed synchronization scheme.

The Lu¨ system and Chen system are taken as examples to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed approach.     

Studying noise-induced intermittency in multistable systems on the basis of reference systems

The noise-induced intermittent behavior of multistable systems is studied using the example of a reference system (a Chua generator). It is shown that upon exposing the Chua generator to external noise, a noise-induced intermittency is observed at certain values of the control parameters. The statistical characteristics obtained for this type of behavior are compared to the appropriate theoretical formulas.     

Fuzzy adaptive synchronization of uncertain chaotic systems via delayed feedback control

Based on the T-S fuzzy model and the delayed feedback control (DFC) scheme, this Letter presents a robust synchronization strategy for a class of chaotic system with unknown parameters and disturbances. Being the response system, the designed robust observer can adaptively track the drive system globally. The T-S fuzzy model of the 4D chaotic system (Lorenz-Stenflo) is developed as an example for illustration. Numerical simulations are shown to verify the results.     

Realization of generalized synchronization between different chaotic systems via scalar controller

In this paper, a very simple generalized synchronization method between different chaotic systems is presented. Only a scalar controller is used in this method. The method of obtaining the scalar controller from chaotic systems is established. The sufficient and necessary condition of generalized synchronization is obtained from a rigorous theory, and the sufficient and necessary condition of generalized synchronization is irrelative to chaotic system itself. Theoretical analyses and simulation results show that the method established in this paper is effective.     

A generalized scheme for designing multistable continuous dynamical systems

In this paper, a generalized scheme is proposed for designing multistable continuous dynamical systems. The scheme is based on the concept of partial synchronization of states and the concept of constants of motion. The most important observation is that by coupling two m-dimensional dynamical systems, multistable nature can be obtained if i number of variables of the two systems are completely synchronized and j number of variables keep a constant difference between them i.e., their differences are constants of motion, where i + j = m and 1 ≤ i, j ≤ m?1. The proposed scheme is illustrated by taking coupled Lorenz systems and coupled chaotic Lorenz-like systems. According to the scheme, two coupled systems reduce to single modified system with some initial condition-dependent parameters. Time evolution plots, phase diagrams, variation of maximum Lyapunov exponent and bifurcation diagrams of the systems are presented to show the multistable nature of the coupled systems.     

Projective synchronization of a class of delayed chaotic systems via impulsive control

The Letter studies the projective synchronization of a class of delayed chaotic systems. The drive-response system can be synchronized to within a desired scaling factor via impulsive control. Some sufficient conditions are derived by the stability analysis of the impulsive functional differential equations. An illustrative example is provided to show the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method and results.     

Lag synchronization of chaotic systems with time-delayed linear terms via impulsive control

In this paper, the lag synchronization of chaotic systems with time-delayed linear terms via impulsive control is investigated. Based on the stability theory of impulsive delayed differential equations, some sufficient conditions are obtained guaranteeing the synchronized behaviours between two delayed chaotic systems. Numerical simulations on time-delayed Lorenz and hyperchaotic Chen systems are also carried out to show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. Note that under the scheme the chaotic system is controlled only at discrete time instants, and so it reduces the control cost in real applications.     

Adaptive synchronization of hyperchaotic systems via passivity feedback control with time-varying gains

A passivity feedback control scheme with time-varying gains is proposed for adaptive synchronization of hyperchaotic systems. By transforming the synchronization error dynamics into an equivalent passive system, a synchronization control law with time-varying gains is achieved and the convergence of the synchronization errors is guaranteed. The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed scheme is demonstrated through its application to hyperchaotic Lü systems.
