Chaotic-Oscillator Synchronization under Negative-Feedback Control

摘要

Differential equations are constructed for a system of oscillators subject to diffusion coupling. In the case of two unidirectionally coupled oscillators, numerical analysis of the equations is carried out for differing degrees of coupling, including autonomous operation and drive-response synchronization. The analysis covers all combinations of regimes in which the two oscillators would operate in the absence of coupling, namely, chaotic-chaotic, regular-chaotic, chaotic-regular, and regular-regular oscillation.
