Robust adaptive synchronization of uncertain unified chaotic systems

Abstract

The problem of synchronizing a unified chaotic system in the presence of parameter variations, unstructured uncertainties, and external disturbances is addressed. To tackle such perturbations whose bounds may be unknown, two robust adaptive algorithms are proposed. The stability analysis is presented based on the Lyapunov stability theorem. Simulation results demonstrate the performance of the developed synchronization schemes. © 2009 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.
