The synchronization of time-delayed multi-agent networks with connected and directed topology is studied. Based on the correlative work about the agent synchronization, a modified model is presented, in which each communication receiver is distributed a delay 7. In addition, a proportional term k is introduced to modulate the delay range and to guarantee the synchronization of each agent. Two new parameters mentioned above are only correlative to the network topology, and a theorem about their connections is derived by both frequency domain method and geometric method. Finally, the theoretical result is illustrated by numerical simulations.
In this paper, a new method for controlling projective synchronization in coupled chaotic systems is presented. The control method is based on a partially linear decomposition and negative feedback of state errors. Firstly, the synchronizability of the proposed projective synchronization control method is proved mathematically. Then, three different representative examples are discussed to verify the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed control method.
An important task of Internet congestion control is inhibiting sporadic data flow to maintain a suitable window size or route queue length. Such a requirement is just consistent with the basic idea and function of a moving average filter. In this paper one prior Internet congestion control model, named transmission control protocol (TCP)/random early detection (RED) stroboscopic model, is studied, and then one new scheme is proposed to enlarge its stable domain, where a simple moving average filter is introduced to inhibit sporadic data flow as possible. In the novel scheme the bifurcation phenomenon is postponed without any extra controller. The effectiveness of the new scheme is verified by theoretical analyses and numerical simulations.
The performance of synchronous reluctance motor (SynRM) degrades due to chaos when its systemic parameters fall into a certain area. To control the undesirable chaos in SynRM, a passive control law is presented in this paper, which transforms the chaotic SynRM into an equivalent passive system. It is proved that the equivalent system can be asymptotically stabilized at the set equilibrium point, namely, chaos in SynRM can be controlled. Moreover, in order to eliminate the influence of undeterministic parameters, an adaptive law is introduced into the designed controller. Computer simulation results show that the proposed controller is very effective and robust against the uncertainties in systemic parameters. The present study may help to maintain the secure operation of industrial servo drive system.
This paper studies how random phase (namely, noise-perturbed phase) effects the dynamical behaviours of a simple model of power system which operates in a stable regime far away from chaotic behaviour in the absence of noise. It finds that when the phase perturbation is weak, chaos is absent in power systems. With the increase of disturbed intensity σ, power systems become unstable and fall into chaos as σ further increases. These phenomena imply that random phase can induce and enhance chaos in power systems. Furthermore, the possible mechanism behind the action of random phase is addressed.
