We report a design of delay coupling for lag synchronization in two
unidirectionally coupled chaotic oscillators. A delay term is introduced in the
definition of the coupling to target any desired lag between the driver and the
response. The stability of the lag synchronization is ensured by using the
Hurwitz matrix stability. We are able to scale up or down the size of a driver
attractor at a response system in presence of a lag. This allows compensating
the attenuation of the amplitude of a signal during transmission through a
delay line. The delay coupling is illustrated with numerical examples of 3D
systems, the Hindmarsh-Rose neuron model, the R\"ossler system and a Sprott
system and, a 4D system. We implemented the coupling in electronic circuit to
realize any desired lag synchronization in chaotic oscillators and scaling of
attractors.Comment: 10 pages, 7 figure
