A NOVEL APPROACH FOR CONSTRUCTING HIGH-ORDER CHUA'S CIRCUIT WITH MULTI-DIRECTIONAL MULTI-SCROLL CHAOTIC ATTRACTORS

A novel approach for constructing a high-order Chua's circuit is proposed. Based on a dual-port RCL network, a high-order Chua's circuit which can generate multi-directional multi-scroll (MDMS) chaotic attractors can be realized by introducing a RC structure and suitable nonlinear functions. First, a fourth-order Chua's circuit is achieved by adding a capacitor, a resistance and a controlled-source constituted by stair functions in the third-order Chua's circuit. And then, this recursive method can be adopted in higher-order Chua's circuit which can generate multi-scroll chaotic attractors in more directions. Finally, a sixth-order Chua's circuit is designed and its experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of this method.
