On synchronization of chaotic systems
This paper deals with the problem of synchronization, or observer design, of chaotic dynamical systems. It is argued that the complex nature of the transmitter dynamics may provide additional tools for finding a suitable observer. A number of characteristic examples illustrate the idea, and reveal some challenging open problems in this contex
Chaos-based communication scheme using proportional and proportional-integral observers
In this paper, we propose a new chaos-based communication scheme using the observers. The novelty lies in the masking procedure that is employed to hide the confidential information using the chaotic oscillator. We use a combination of the addition and inclusion methods to mask the information. The performance of two observers, the proportional observer (P-observer) and the proportional integral observer (PI-observer) is compared that are employed as receivers for the proposed communication scheme. We show that the P-observer is not suitable scheme since it imposes unpractical constraints on the messages to be transmitted. On the other hand, we show that the PI-observer is the better solution because it allows greater flexibility in choosing the gains of the observer and does not impose any unpractical restrictions on the message
Using discrete-time hyperchaotic-based asymmetric encryption and decryption keys for secure signal transmission
In this paper, a framework for the synchronization of two non-identical discrete-time hyperchaotic systems, namely the 3D Baier-Klein and the 3D Hitzel-Zele maps, based on the use of hybrid output feedback concept and aggregation techniques, is employed to design a two-channel secure communication system. New sufficient conditions for synchronization are obtained by the use of Borne and Gentina practical criterion for stabilization study associated to the forced arrow form matrix for system description. The efficiency of the proposed approach to confidentially recover the transmitted message signal is shown via an application to the hyperchaotic Baier-Klein and Hitzel-Zele systems, considered as generators of asymmetric encryption and decryption keys
Secure communication based on indirect coupled synchronization
In this paper, a secure communication system composed of four chaotic oscillators is proposed. Two of these oscillators are unidirectionally coupled and employed as transmitter and receiver. The other two oscillators are indirectly coupled and are employed as keystream generators. The novelty lies in the generation of the same chaotic keystream both in the transmitter and receiver side for encryption and decryption purposes. We show, in particular, that it is possible to synchronize the two keystream generators even though they are not directly coupled. So doing, an estimation of the keystream is obtained allowing decrypting the message. The main feature of the proposed communication scheme is that the keystream cannot be generated with the sole knowledge of the transmitted chaotic signal, hence making it very secure. The performance of the proposed communication scheme is shown via simulation using the Chua and Lorenz oscillators
Synchronicity From Synchronized Chaos
The synchronization of loosely coupled chaotic oscillators, a phenomenon
investigated intensively for the last two decades, may realize the
philosophical notion of synchronicity. Effectively unpredictable chaotic
systems, coupled through only a few variables, commonly exhibit a predictable
relationship that can be highly intermittent. We argue that the phenomenon
closely resembles the notion of meaningful synchronicity put forward by Jung
and Pauli if one identifies "meaningfulness" with internal synchronization,
since the latter seems necessary for synchronizability with an external system.
Jungian synchronization of mind and matter is realized if mind is analogized to
a computer model, synchronizing with a sporadically observed system as in
meteorological data assimilation. Internal synchronization provides a recipe
for combining different models of the same objective process, a configuration
that may also describe the functioning of conscious brains. In contrast to
Pauli's view, recent developments suggest a materialist picture of
semi-autonomous mind, existing alongside the observed world, with both
exhibiting a synchronistic order. Basic physical synchronicity is manifest in
the non-local quantum connections implied by Bell's theorem. The quantum world
resides on a generalized synchronization "manifold", a view that provides a
bridge between nonlocal realist interpretations and local realist
interpretations that constrain observer choice .Comment: 1) clarification regarding the connection with philosophical
synchronicity in Section 2 and in the concluding section 2) reference to
Maldacena-Susskind "ER=EPR" relation in discussion of role of wormholes in
entanglement and nonlocality 3) length reduction and stylistic changes

Robust output stabilization: improving performance via supervisory control
We analyze robust stability, in an input-output sense, of switched stable
systems. The primary goal (and contribution) of this paper is to design
switching strategies to guarantee that input-output stable systems remain so
under switching. We propose two types of {\em supervisors}: dwell-time and
hysteresis based. While our results are stated as tools of analysis they serve
a clear purpose in design: to improve performance. In that respect, we
illustrate the utility of our findings by concisely addressing a problem of
observer design for Lur'e-type systems; in particular, we design a hybrid
observer that ensures ``fast'' convergence with ``low'' overshoots. As a second
application of our main results we use hybrid control in the context of
synchronization of chaotic oscillators with the goal of reducing control
effort; an originality of the hybrid control in this context with respect to
other contributions in the area is that it exploits the structure and chaotic
behavior (boundedness of solutions) of Lorenz oscillators.Comment: Short version submitted to IEEE TA
Effective synchronization of a class of Chua's chaotic systems using an exponential feedback coupling
In this work a robust exponential function based controller is designed to
synchronize effectively a given class of Chua's chaotic systems. The stability
of the drive-response systems framework is proved through the Lyapunov
stability theory. Computer simulations are given to illustrate and verify the
method.Comment: 12 pages, 18 figure
