Adaptive, Observer-Based Synchronization of Different Chaotic Systems

In this study, the problem of master-slave synchronization of two different chaotic systems is considered and solved under a novel set of assumptions. The mathematical model of each of them contains unknown, constant parameters. Only a single output of the master system is available, and only a single input of the slave system is a control input. The proposed, novel approach is based on the active cooperation of the adaptive observer of the master system and adaptive controller of the slave. The tuning function technique is included in the observer-controller design to avoid overparameterization. Complexity explosion and unacceptable increases in adaptive parameters are prevented by proper adaptive techniques application. Due to the selected observer type, the derivation is restricted to the defined class of master systems-output-nonlinear parametric (ONP) systems. Linear transformation of several popular chaotic systems (e.g., Arneodo, Arneodo-Coullet, Genesio-Tesi, Lur'e) into the ONP form is discussed. The stability of the whole, closed-loop system is derived using Lyapunov techniques and examples of implementation (synchronization of Arneodo and 3D jerk systems) are provided.

Automated summary

This study addresses and solves the problem of master-slave synchronization of two different chaotic systems under a novel set of assumptions. A new approach is proposed, which is based on the active cooperation of the adaptive observer of the master system and adaptive controller of the slave, while avoiding overparameterization through the tuning function technique. The stability of the closed-loop system is derived using Lyapunov techniques, and implementation examples are provided.
