Synchronization of nonlinearly coupled networks of Chua oscillators

Systems and Control 2019-04-02 v1

Abstract

The paper develops new sufficient conditions for synchronization of a network of NN nonlinearly coupled Chua oscillators interconnected via the first state coordinate only. The nonlinear coupling strength is governed by a function residing within a sector, i.e. it is bounded from above and below by linear functions. The derived sufficient conditions provide a trade-off between the characteristics of the sector and the interconnection topology of the network to guarantee the synchronization of the oscillators.
