Combination synchronization of fractional order n-chaotic systems using active backstepping design

Abstract

In this article, a scheme using active backstepping design method is proposed to achieve combination synchronization of n number of fractional order chaotic systems. In the proposed method the controllers are designed with the help of a new lemma and Lyapunov function in a systematic way. Synchronization among three/four fractional order systems have been shown as examples of synchronization of n-chaotic systems. Numerical simulation and graphical results clearly exhibit that the method of this new procedure is easy to implement and reliable for synchronization of fractional order chaotic systems.
