Generalized projective synchronization of the fractional-order Chen hyperchaotic system

In this paper, we numerically investigate the hyperchaotic behaviors in the fractional-order Chen hyperchaotic systems. By utilizing the fractional calculus techniques, we find that hyperchaos exists in the fractional-order Chen hyperchaotic system with the order less than 4. We found that the lowest order for hyperchaos to have in this system is 3.72. Our results are validated by the existence of two positive Lyapunov exponents. The generalized projective synchronization method is also presented for synchronizing the fractional-order Chen hyperchaotic systems. The present technique is based on the Laplace transform theory. This simple and theoretically rigorous synchronization approach enables synchronization of fractional-order hyperchaotic systems to be achieved and does not require the computation of the conditional Lyapunov exponents. Numerical simulations are performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed synchronization scheme.     

Application of Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy model to a class of chaotic synchronization and anti-synchronization

In this study, we investigate a class of chaotic synchronization and anti-synchronization with stochastic parameters. A controller is composed of a compensation controller and a fuzzy controller which is designed based on fractional stability theory. Three typical examples, including the synchronization between an integer-order Chen system and a fractional-order Lü system, the anti-synchronization of different 4D fractional-order hyperchaotic systems with non-identical orders, and the synchronization between a 3D integer-order chaotic system and a 4D fractional-order hyperchaos system, are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the controller. The numerical simulation results and theoretical analysis both demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. Overall, this study presents new insights concerning the concepts of synchronization and anti-synchronization, synchronization and control, the relationship of fractional and integer order nonlinear systems.     

Synchronization of nonidentical chaotic fractional-order systems with different orders of fractional derivatives

This paper addresses the problem of synchronization of chaotic fractional-order systems with different orders of fractional derivatives. Based on the stability theory of fractional-order linear systems and the idea of tracking control, suitable controllers are correspondingly proposed for two cases: the first is synchronization between two identical chaotic fractional-order systems with different fractional orders, and the other is synchronization between two nonidentical fractional-order chaotic systems with different fractional orders. Three numerical examples illustrate that fast synchronization can be achieved even between a chaotic fractional-order system and a hyperchaotic fractional-order system.     

Impulsive control and synchronization of a new unified hyperchaotic system with varying control gains and impulsive intervals

In this paper, we investigate the impulsive control and synchronization of a new unified hyperchaotic system. This new system unifies both the hyperchaotic Lorenz system and the hyperchaotic Chen system. Some conditions are given to guarantee the global asymptotic stability of the controlled and synchronized system. The control gains and impulsive intervals are both variable. Moreover, we estimate the upper bound of impulsive interval for stable control and synchronization. Simulations are included to show the effectiveness of the theoretical results.     

Hyperchaos synchronization of fractional-order arbitrary dimensional dynamical systems via modified sliding mode control

This paper considers the design of adaptive sliding mode control approach for synchronization of a class of fractional-order arbitrary dimensional hyperchaotic systems with unknown bounded disturbances. This approach is based on the principle of sliding mode control and adaptive compensation term for solving the problem of synchronization of the unknown parameters in fractional-order nonlinear systems. In particular, a novel fractional-order five dimensional hyperchaotic system has been introduced as a representative example. Furthermore, global stability and asymptotic synchronization between the outputs of master and slave systems can be achieved based on the modified Lyapunov functional and fractional stability condition. Simulation results are provided in detail to illustrate the performance of the proposed approach.     

Tracking control and synchronization of the new hyperchaotic Liu system via backstepping techniques

In this paper, recursive and active backstepping nonlinear techniques are employed to design control functions for the respective, control, and synchronization of the new hyperchaotic Liu system. The designed recursive backstepping nonlinear controllers are capable of stabilizing the hyperchaotic Liu system at any position as well as controlling it to track any trajectory that is a smooth function of time. The designed active backstepping nonlinear controllers are effective in globally synchronizing two identical hyperchaotic Liu systems evolving from different initial conditions. The results are all validated by numerical simulations.     

Robust synchronization of two different fractional-order chaotic systems with unknown parameters using adaptive sliding mode approach

In this paper, an adaptive sliding mode control method is introduced to ensure robust synchronization of two different fractional-order chaotic systems with fully unknown parameters and external disturbances. For this purpose, a fractional integral sliding surface is defined and an adaptive sliding mode controller is designed. In this method, no knowledge of the bounds of parameters and perturbation is required in advance and the parameters are updated through an adaptive control process. The proposed scheme is global and theoretically rigorous. Two examples are given to illustrate effectiveness of the scheme, in which the synchronizations between fractional-order chaotic Chen system and fractional-order chaotic Rössler system, between fractional-order hyperchaotic Lorenz system and fractional-order hyperchaotic Chen system, respectively, are successfully achieved. Corresponding numerical simulations are also given to verify the analytical results.

     

Observer-based projective synchronization of fractional systems via a scalar signal: application to hyperchaotic R?ssler systems

This paper introduces an observer-based approach to achieve projective synchronization in fractional-order chaotic systems using a scalar synchronizing signal. The proposed method, which enables a linear fractional error system to be obtained, exploits the Kalman decomposition and a proper stability criterion in order to stabilize the error dynamics at the origin. The approach combines three desirable features, that is, the theoretical foundation of the method, the adoption of a scalar synchronizing signal, and the exact analytical solution of the fractional error system written in terms of Mittag-Leffler function. Finally, the projective synchronization of the fractional-order hyperchaotic R?ssler systems is illustrated in detail.

Under different bifurcation parameters, some conditions ensuring the Hopf bifurcations are proposed. Numerical simulations are given to illustrate and verify the results.

A novel secure image transmission scheme based on synchronization of fractional-order discrete-time hyperchaotic systems

In this paper, a secure image transmission scheme based on synchronization of fractional-order discrete-time hyperchaotic systems is proposed. In this scheme, a fractional-order modified-Hénon map is considered as a transmitter, the system parameters and fractional orders are considered as secret keys. As a receiver, a step-by-step delayed observer is used, and based on this one, an exact synchronization is established. To make the transmission scheme secure, an encryption function is used to cipher the original information using a key stream obtained from the chaotic map sequences. Moreover, to further enhance the scheme security, the ciphered information is inserted by inclusion method in the chaotic map dynamics. The first contribution of this paper is to propose new results on the observability and the observability matching condition of nonlinear discrete-time fractional-order systems. To the best of our knowledge, these features have not been addressed in the literature. In the second contribution, the design of delayed discrete observer, based on fractional-order discrete-time hyperchaotic system, is proposed. The feasibility of this realization is demonstrated. Finally, different analysis are introduced to test the proposed scheme security. Simulation results are presented to highlight the performances of our method. These results show that, our scheme can resist different kinds of attacks and it exhibits good performance.     

Adaptive generalized function projective synchronization of uncertain chaotic complex systems

The complex nonlinear systems appear in many important fields of physics and engineering, which are very useful for cryptography and secure communication. This paper investigates adaptive generalized function projective synchronization (AGFPS) between two different dimensional chaotic complex systems with fully or partially unknown parameters via both reduced order and increased order. Based on the Lyapunov stability theorem and adaptive control technique, a general adaptive controller with corresponding parameter update rule is constructed to achieve AGFPS between two nonidentical chaotic complex systems with distinct orders, and identify the unknown parameters simultaneously. This scheme is then applied to obtain AGFPS between the hyperchaotic complex Lü system and the chaotic complex Lorenz system with fully unknown parameters, and between the uncertain chaotic complex Chen system and the uncertain hyperchaotic complex Lorenz system, respectively. Corresponding simulations results are performed to show the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed synchronization method.

According to Lyapunov stability theory and active backstepping design method, the corresponding controllers are both designed. Finally, several numerical examples are provided to illustrate the obtained results.

This paper addresses the reliable synchronization problem between two non-identical chaotic fractional order systems. In this work, we present an adaptive feedback control scheme for the synchronization of two coupled chaotic fractional order systems with different fractional orders. Based on the stability results of linear fractional order systems and Laplace transform theory, using the master-slave synchronization scheme, sufficient conditions for chaos synchronization are derived. The designed controller ensures that fractional order chaotic oscillators that have non-identical fractional orders can be synchronized with suitable feedback controller applied to the response system. Numerical simulations are performed to assess the performance of the proposed adaptive controller in synchronizing chaotic systems.     

Parameter identification and adaptive impulsive synchronization of uncertain complex-variable chaotic systems

Synchronization of nonlinear dynamical systems with complex variables has attracted much more attention in various fields of science and engineering. In this paper, the problem of parameter identification and adaptive impulsive synchronization for a class of chaotic (hyperchaotic) complex nonlinear systems with uncertain parameters is investigated. Based on the theories of adaptive control and impulsive control, a synchronization scheme is designed to make a class of chaotic and hyperchaotic complex systems asymptotically synchronized, and uncertain parameters are identified simultaneously in the process of synchronization. Particularly, the proposed adaptive–impulsive control laws for synchronization are simple and can be readily applied in practical applications. The synchronization of two identical chaotic complex Chen systems and two identical hyperchaotic complex Lü systems are taken as two examples to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed controllers and identifiers.
