A simple chaotic system with a single nonquadratic term is developed to be a switchable chaotic signal generator in this paper. Additional nonlinearity of the absolute value function is introduced for reforming the structure without damaging the basic dynamics but yielding a new independent amplitude–frequency controller. A switchable chaotic experimental oscillator is designed afterwards, where two coefficients corresponding to two independent rheostats rescale the amplitude and frequency of the chaotic signals smoothly. To our knowledge, this has never been found in other chaotic oscillators.
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.
