Synchronization of Fractional-Order Chaotic Systems with Model Uncertainty and External Disturbance

Abstract

This paper is concerned with complete synchronization of fractional-order chaotic systems with both model uncertainty and external disturbance. Firstly, we propose a new dynamic feedback control method for complete synchronization of fractional-order nominal systems (without both uncertainty and disturbance). Then, a new uncertainty and disturbance estimator (UDE)-based dynamic feedback control method for the fractional-order systems with both uncertainty and disturbance is presented, by which the synchronization problem of such fractional-order chaotic systems is realized. Finally, the fractional-order Lorenz system is used to demonstrate the practicability of the proposed results.
