Abstract

The concept of practical synchronization is introduced and the chaos synchronization of master-slave chaotic systems with uncertain input nonlinearities is investigated. Based on the differential and integral inequalities (DII) approach, a simple linear control is proposed to realize practical synchronization for master-slave chaotic systems with uncertain input nonlinearities. Besides, the guaranteed exponential convergence rate can be prespecified. Applications of proposed master-slave chaotic synchronization technique to secure communication as well as several numerical simulations are given to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the obtained result.
