Cooperation in multiple vehicle teams requires that information be shared between team members. If shared information is not synchronized across the team, then cooperation is adversely affected. This paper considers the problem of information synchronization in multiple agent teams. We define notions of asymptotic synchronizability and show that a team of agents is asymptotically synchronizable...

Chaos synchronization of coupled fractional order differential equation is receiving increasing attention because of its potential applications in secure communications and control processing. The aim of this paper is synchronization between two identical or different delay fractional-order chaotic systems in finite time. At first, the predictor-corrector method is used to obtain the solutions ...

A new strategy to identify the independent dynamics of spatially extended nonlinear networks is proposed. Starting from spatial modes theory an index has been defined as the number of relevant spatial modes and therefore identifies the system degree of freedom. The proposed methodology is validated by quantifying self-synchronization in three pattern-oriented systems: bidimensional Chua’s circu...

This paper focuses on the tracking and synchronization problems of hyperchaotic systems based on active backstepping method. The method consists of a recursive approach that interlaces the choice of a Lyapunov function with the design of feedback control. First, a nonlinear recursive active backstepping control vector is designed to track any desired trajectory in hyperchaotic Wang system. Furt...

In this paper, a brief summary of synchronization approaches is discussed sequentially from older techniques to latest technology. There are many techniques that have been developed which focusing of synchronization, from basic grid evaluating technique, phase-locked-loop (PLL) and later to synchronous reference-frame phase-locked-loop where is established on basis of phase estimation and deter...

This paper focuses on master slave synchronization problem of piecewise affine (PWA) systems of continuous type. The synchronization problem is solved as a global asymptotic stability problem of the error dynamics between the master and the slave systems via a state feedback control law. Using a Lyapunov approach and the so-called S-procedure, new sufficient conditions are proposed. The synchro...
