Synchronization of a class of chaotic systems using small impulsive signal

In this paper the issue of impulsive synchronization of a class of uncertain chaotic systems with parameters perturbation is investigated. Applying the impulsive theory and linear matrix inequality technique, some less conservative and easily verified criteria for impulsive synchronization of chaotic systems are derived. The proposed impulsive synchronization scheme is applied to the chaotic Murali–Lakshmanan–Chua circuit and hyperchaotic Chen and the corresponding synchronization conditions are derived. Moreover, the boundaries of the stable region are also estimated according to the equidistant impulse interval. The effectiveness of the method is demonstrated by the computer simulation.
