A Novel Adaptive Active Control Projective Synchronization of Chaotic Systems

Abstract

This paper investigates adaptive active control projective synchronization scheme. A general synchronization controller and parameter update laws are proposed to stabilize the error system for the identical structural chaotic systems. It is the first time that the active synchronization, the projective synchronization, and the adaptive synchronization are combined to achieve the synchronization of chaotic systems, which extend the control capability of achieving chaotic synchronization. By using a constant diagonal matrix, the active control is developed. Especially, when designing the controller, we just need to ensure that the diagonal elements of the diagonal matrix are less than or equal 0. So, the synchronization of chaotic systems can be realized more easily. Furthermore, by proposing an active controller, in combination with several different control schemes, we lower the complexity of the design process of the controller. More importantly, the larger the absolute value of product of the diagonal elements of diagonal matrix is, the smoother the curve of chaotic synchronization is and the shorter the time of chaotic synchronization is. In our paper, we take Lorenz system as an example to verify the effectiveness of the proposed synchronization scheme. Theoretical analysis and numerical simulations demonstrate the feasibility of this control method.
