It has been known that very complex chaotic behaviors can be observed in a simple first-order system with time-delay. This paper presents a fuzzy model-based approach for synchronization of time-delayed chaotic system via a scalar output variable. Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model can represent a general class of nonlinear system and we employ it for fuzzy modeling of the chaotic drive and response system with time-delay. Since only a scalar output variable is available for synchronization, a fuzzy observer based on T-S fuzzy model is designed and applied to chaotic synchronization. We analyze the stability of the overall fuzzy synchronization system by applying Lyapunov-Krasovskii theory and derive stability conditions by solving linear matrix inequalities (LMI's) problem. A numerical example is given to demonstrate the validity of the proposed synchronization approach.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
