Abstract: The design of chaos-based secure communication
via synchronized modified Chua-s systems is investigated in
this paper. A continuous control law is proposed to ensure
synchronization of the master and slave modified Chua-s
systems by using the variable structure control technique.
Particularly, the concept of extended systems is introduced
such that a continuous control input is obtained to avoid
chattering phenomenon. Then, it becomes possible to ensure
that the message signal embedded in the transmitter can be
recovered in the receiver.
Abstract: The global chaos synchronization for a class of time-delayed power systems is investigated via observer-based approach. By employing the concepts of quadratic stability theory and generalized system model, a new sufficient criterion for constructing an observer is deduced. In contrast to the previous works, this paper proposes a theoretical and systematic design procedure to realize chaos synchronization for master-slave power systems. Finally, an illustrative example is given to show the applicability of the obtained scheme.
