Abstract: | ![]() Complete synchronization could be reached between some chaotic and/or hyperchaotic systems under linear coupling.More generally,the conditional Lyapunov exponents are often calculated to confirm the stability of synchronization and reliability of linear controllers.In this paper,detailed proof and measurement of the reliability of linear controllers are given by constructing a Lyapunov function in the exponential form.It is confirmed that two hyperchaotic systems can reach complete synchronization when two linear controllers are imposed on the driven system unidirectionally and the unknown parameters in the driving systems are estimated completely.Finally,it gives the general guidance to reach complete synchronization under linear coupling for other chaotic and hyperchaotic systems with unknown parameters. |
