A CIRCUIT FOR STUDYING THE SYNCHRONIZATION OF CHAOTIC SYSTEMS

Abstract

Recent work on the synchronizing of chaotic systems raises the possibility of finding ways to apply chaos to real problems. Studying these applications requires that real physical systems be used, as well as mathematical models. There are no general rules for designing or building such physical systems. We present here a circuit that is useful for studying applications of synchronized chaotic systems and discuss some of the considerations that went into designing this circuit. We also show how this circuit is used for studying cascaded synchronized chaotic systems.
