Chaotic Synchronization of a Class of Nonlinear Systems via Sampled-Data State Feedback

This paper presents a control strategy for the problem of using sampled-data feedback to synchronize a slave chaotic system with a master chaotic system. The problem is of practical importance since in practice the system states is transmitted as a sampled signal. In order to solve this problem, a sampled-data controller using state feedback is designed to make the tracking error converge to zero. An application to a chaotic Chua oscillator illustrates the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
