Adaptive generalized function projective lag synchronization of different chaotic systems with fully uncertain parameters

In this paper, a novel projective synchronization scheme called adaptive generalized function projective lag synchronization (AGFPLS) is proposed. In the AGFPLS method, the states of two different chaotic systems with fully uncertain parameters are asymptotically lag synchronized up to a desired scaling function matrix. By means of the Lyapunov stability theory, an adaptive controller with corresponding parameter update rule is designed for achieving AGFPLS between two diverse chaotic systems and estimating the unknown parameters. This technique is employed to realize AGFPLS between uncertain Lü chaotic system and uncertain Liu chaotic system, and between Chen hyperchaotic system and Lorenz hyperchaotic system with fully uncertain parameters, respectively. Furthermore, AGFPLS between two different uncertain chaotic systems can still be achieved effectively with the existence of noise perturbation. The corresponding numerical simulations are performed to demonstrate the validity and robustness of the presented synchronization method.     

Adaptive synchronization of chaotic systems and its application to secure communications

This paper addresses the adaptive synchronization problem of the drive–driven type chaotic systems via a scalar transmitted signal. Given certain structural conditions of chaotic systems, an adaptive observer-based driven system is constructed to synchronize the drive system whose dynamics are subjected to the system’s disturbances and/or some unknown parameters. By appropriately selecting the observer gains, the synchronization and stability of the overall systems can be guaranteed by the Lyapunov approach. Two well-known chaotic systems: Rössler-like and Chua’s circuit are considered as illustrative examples to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. Moreover, as an application, the proposed scheme is then applied to a secure communication system whose process consists of two phases: the adaptation phase in which the chaotic transmitter’s disturbances are estimated; and the communication phase in which the information signal is transmitted and then recovered on the basis of the estimated parameters. Simulation results verify the proposed scheme’s success in the communication application.     

Lag and anticipatory synchronization based parameter estimation scheme in modulated time-delayed systems

In this article, we have shown that using delay dynamical systems as base, one can use the modulation of the various parameters, to transmit multiple signals through a single chaotic time series. It is shown that under certain conditions the original signals and parameters of the driving signals can be recovered with the help of an adaptive demodulator. An important aspect of the present method is that the communication is possible between two time-delayed systems with parameter mismatch using lag and anticipatory synchronization. The whole idea is presented on the basis of Mackey–Glass system, with variable time delay.     

Robust synchronization of drive–response chaotic systems via adaptive sliding mode control

A robust adaptive sliding control scheme is developed in this study to achieve synchronization for two identical chaotic systems in the presence of uncertain system parameters, external disturbances and nonlinear control inputs. An adaptation algorithm is given based on the Lyapunov stability theory. Using this adaptation technique to estimate the upper-bounds of parameter variation and external disturbance uncertainties, an adaptive sliding mode controller is then constructed without requiring the bounds of parameter and disturbance uncertainties to be known in advance. It is proven that the proposed adaptive sliding mode controller can maintain the existence of sliding mode in finite time in uncertain chaotic systems. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.     

Adaptive fuzzy observer based synchronization design and secure communications of chaotic systems

This paper proposes a synchronization design scheme based on an alternative indirect adaptive fuzzy observer and its application to secure communication of chaotic systems. It is assumed that their states are unmeasurable and their parameters are unknown. Chaotic systems and the structure of the fuzzy observer are represented by the Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy model. Using Lyapunov stability theory, an adaptive law is derived to estimate the unknown parameters and the stability of the proposed system is guaranteed. Through this process, the asymptotic synchronization of chaotic systems is achieved. The proposed observer is applied to secure communications of chaotic systems and some numerical simulation results show the validity of theoretical derivations and the performance of the proposed observer.     

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.     

An application of Chen system for secure chaotic communication based on extended Kalman filter and multi-shift cipher algorithm

In recent years chaotic secure communication and chaos synchronization have received ever increasing attention. In this paper a chaotic communication method using extended Kalman filter is presented. The chaotic synchronization is implemented by EKF design in the presence of channel additive noise and processing noise. Encoding chaotic communication is used to achieve a satisfactory, typical secure communication scheme. In the proposed system, a multi-shift cipher algorithm is also used to enhance the security and the key cipher is chosen as one of the chaos states. The key estimate is employed to recover the primary data. To illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme, a numerical example based on Chen dynamical system is presented and the results are compared to two other chaotic systems.     

Robust synchronization of parametrized nonautonomous discrete systems with applications to communication systems

We study synchronization of a coupled discrete system consisting of a Master System and a Slave System. The Master System usually exhibits chaotic or complicated behavior and transmits a signal with a chaotic component to the Slave System. The Slave System then recovers the original signal and removes the chaotic component. To ensure secured communication, the Master and the Slave systems must synchronize independent of the variation of the systems parameters and initial conditions. Here we develop a general approach and obtain some general results for synchronization of such coupled systems naturally arising from discretization of well-know continuous systems, and we illustrate general results with two specific examples: the discretized Lorenz system and a discretized nonlinear oscillator. We also present some simulations using MatLab to illustrate our discussions.     

Synchronization of chaotic systems with parameter driven by a chaotic signal

Chaos control with driving parameter scheme in uncoupled identical chaotic oscillators is presented. By driving the parameter of chaotic systems using external chaotic signal, synchronization and anti-synchronization can be implemented. Numerical simulations show that either synchronization or anti-synchronization can appear depending significantly on initial condition and on driving strength. The proposed method is particularly suited for a variety of chaotic systems, which cannot couple with each other in engineering.

Synchronization and secure communication of chaotic systems via robust adaptive high-gain fuzzy observer

This paper proposes an alternative robust adaptive high-gain fuzzy observer design scheme and its application to synchronization and secure communication of chaotic systems. It is assumed that their states are immeasurable and their parameters are unknown. The structure of the proposed observer is represented by Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy model and has the integrator of the estimation error. It improves the performance of high-gain observer and makes the proposed observer robust against noisy measurements, uncertainties and parameter perturbations as well. Using Lyapunov stability theory, an adaptive law is derived to estimate the unknown parameters and the stability of the proposed observer is analyzed. Some simulation result of synchronization and secure communication of chaotic systems is given to present the validity of theoretical derivations and the performance of the proposed observer as an application.

Complete synchronization,phase synchronization and parameters estimation in a realistic chaotic system

The two-parameter phase space in certain nonlinear system is investigated and the chaotic region of parameters are measured to show its chaotic properties. Within the chaotic parameter region, the complete synchronization, phase synchronization and parameters estimation are discussed in detail by using adaptive synchronization scheme and Lyapunov stability theory. Two changeable gain coefficients are introduced into the controllable positive Lyapunov function and thus the parameter observers. It is found that complete synchronization or phase synchronization occurs with different controllers being used though the parameter observers are the same. Phase synchronization is observed when zero eigenvalue of Jacobi matrix, which is composed of the errors of corresponding variables in the drive and driven chaotic systems. The optimized selection of controllers can induce transition of phase synchronization and complete synchronization.     

Observer-based synchronization of uncertain chaotic system and its application to secure communications

Within the drive-response configuration, this paper considers the synchronization of uncertain chaotic systems based on observers and chaos-based secure communication. Even if there are unknown disturbances and parameters in the drive system, a robust adaptive observer can be used as response system to realize chaotic synchronization. The proposed method is then applied to secure communication. The transmitter is constructed by injecting the information into the drive system with proper manner and one of the transmitting signal is the sum of one of the output and the information signal. The Lur’e chaotic system is considered as an illustrative example to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approaches.     

Synchronization of Genesio chaotic system via backstepping approach

Backstepping design is proposed for synchronization of Genesio chaotic system. Firstly, the control problem for the chaos synchronization of nominal Genesio systems without unknown parameters is considered. Next, an adaptive backstepping control law is derived to make the error signals between drive Genesio system and response Genesio system with an uncertain parameter asymptotically synchronized. Finally, the approach is extended to the synchronization problem for the system with three unknown parameters. The stability analysis in this article is proved by using a well-known Lyapunov stability theorem. Note that the approach provided here needs only a single controller to realize the synchronization. Two numerical simulations are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed chaos synchronization scheme.     

A chaotic secure communication scheme using fractional chaotic systems based on an extended fractional Kalman filter

In recent years chaotic secure communication and chaos synchronization have received ever increasing attention. In this paper, for the first time, a fractional chaotic communication method using an extended fractional Kalman filter is presented. The chaotic synchronization is implemented by the EFKF design in the presence of channel additive noise and processing noise. Encoding chaotic communication achieves a satisfactory, typical secure communication scheme. In the proposed system, security is enhanced based on spreading the signal in frequency and encrypting it in time domain. In this paper, the main advantages of using fractional order systems, increasing nonlinearity and spreading the power spectrum are highlighted. To illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme, a numerical example based on the fractional Lorenz dynamical system is presented and the results are compared to the integer Lorenz system.     

A new secured transmission scheme based on chaotic synchronization via smooth adaptive unknown-input observers

We present a new scheme for the secured transmission of information based on master–slave synchronization of chaotic systems, using unknown-input observers. Our approach improves upon state-of-the-art schemes by being compatible with information of relatively large amplitude while improving security against intruders through an intricate encryption system. In addition, our approach is robust to channel noise. The main idea is to separate the encryption and synchronization operations by using two cascaded chaotic systems in the transmitter. Technically, the scheme is based on smooth adaptive unknown-input observers; these have the advantage to estimate the (master) states and to reconstruct the unknown inputs simultaneously. The performance of the communication system is illustrated in numerical simulation.     

Nonlinear electronic circuit, Part II: synchronization in a chaotic MODEM scheme

In this work we present a thorough investigation of the effect of noise (internal or external) on the synchronization of a drive-response configuration system (unidirectional coupling between two identical systems). Moreover, since in every practical implementation of a communication system, the transmitter and receiver circuits (although identical) operate under slightly different conditions it is essential to consider the case of the mismatch between the parameters of the transmitter and the receiver. In our work we consider the non-autonomous 2nd order nonlinear oscillator system presented in [G. Mycolaitis, A. Tamasevicious, A. Cenys, A. Namajunas, K. Navionis, A. N. Anagnostopoulos, Globally synchronizable non-autonomous chaotic oscillator, in: Proc. of 7th International Workshop on Nonlinear Dynamics of Electronic Systems, Denmark, July 1999, pp. 277-280] which is particularly suitable for digital communications.Furthermore, we modified the previous chaotic communication system in order to exhibit enhanced security features. The enhancement in the security of the system is achieved by introducing a set of parameters used in the encoding and decoding of the message signal. We also introduce a time delay parameter in the dynamical system which on the one hand improves the chaotic behavior of the system and on the other hand, adds further security in the encoding-decoding scheme.     

Quadratic optimal synchronization of uncertain chaotic systems

This paper investigates the quadratic optimal synchronization of uncertain chaotic systems with parameter mismatch, parametric perturbations and external disturbances on both master and slave systems. A robust control scheme based on Lyapunov stability theory and quadratic optimal control approach is derived to realize chaotic synchronization. The sufficient criterion for stability condition is formulated in a linear matrix inequality (LMI) form. The effect of uncertain parameters and external disturbance is suppressed to an H_∞ norm constraint. An adaptive algorithm is proposed to adjust the uncertain bound in the robust controller avoiding the chattering phenomena. The simulation results for synchronization of the Chua’s circuit system and the Lorenz system demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
