Synchronization analysis for chaotic communication on a satellite formation flying

This paper addresses a synchronization strategy for a network of chaotic systems with particular spatial distribution by using unidirectional and bidirectional time-delayed state feedback. The results show that even in a very demanding scenario, it is possible to achieve synchronization among the systems, so that chaos-based communication can be implemented properly on a satellite formation flying environment. The performance picture of the overall synchronization strategy is shown in numerical simulations.
