Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Studies on fractional-order systems have increased significantly in recent years. Fractional-order systems can enable one to understand the existence characteristics of complex natural, physical, chemical, medical, scientific and engineering-related systems in more depth. It is also important to note that the potential to implement theoretical fractional-order chaotic systems plays a critical role in real-world applications. Accordingly, this Special Issue focuses on the circuit application of fractional-order chaotic systems for exploring the recent advances in modeling, design, theory, dynamic analysis and implementation. The Special Issue, thus, aims to publish the possible scientific advances in the field of the fractional-order systems addressing both the practical and theoretical aspects. To this end, original research as well as review articles are welcome for our Special Issue.

Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Fractional calculus;
  • Modeling and analysis of fractional-order circuits;
  • Modeling electronic and electrical devices;
  • Fractional-order chaotic circuits and systems;
  • Fractional-order circuit theory;
  • Fractional-order filter and oscillator designs and realizations;
  • Digital and analog approximations for realization of fractional-order systems;
  • Active and passive designs of fractional-order elements;
  • The fractional-order circuit models for real-world applications.

This paper proposes a novel five-dimensional (5D) memristor-based chaotic system by introducing a flux-controlled memristor into a 3D chaotic system with two stable equilibrium points, and increases the dimensionality utilizing the state feedback control method. The newly proposed memristor-based chaotic system has line equilibrium points, so the corresponding attractor belongs to a hidden attractor. By using typical nonlinear analysis tools, the complicated dynamical behaviors of the new system are explored, which reveals many interesting phenomena, including extreme homogeneous and heterogeneous multistabilities, hidden transient state and state transition behavior, and offset-boosting control. Meanwhile, the unstable periodic orbits embedded in the hidden chaotic attractor were calculated by the variational method, and the corresponding pruning rules were summarized. Furthermore, the analog and DSP circuit implementation illustrates the flexibility of the proposed memristic system. Finally, the active synchronization of the memristor-based chaotic system was investigated, demonstrating the important engineering application values of the new system. Full article

This study introduces an innovative filter topology capable of providing simultaneous positive and negative gain outputs for one-fractional order LP, with high-pass, all-pass, and fractional-order shelving filter responses. The circuit, utilizing multi-output second-generation current-controlled conveyors, stands out as the first to deliver ten outputs, incorporating both integer and fractional-order filter responses, without requiring additional components. Its current-mode design simplifies the process, employing minimal active and grounded passive elements, making it appropriate for low-voltage/low-power applications. The filter utilizes fifth-order Oustaloup approximation and Foster type-I RC networks for fractional-order capacitors, providing enhanced control over the transition slope. PSpice simulations confirmed a 1 kHz cut-off, showcasing low power consumption, minimal noise, and a wide dynamic range, positioning the filter as suitable for sensors, control, and acoustic applications.

In this paper, we use two Fractional-Order Chaotic Systems (FOCS)—one for the sender and one for the receiver—to determine the optimal synchronisation for a secure communication technique. With the help of the Step-By-Step Sliding-Mode Observer (SBS-SMO), this synchronisation is accomplished. An innovative optimisation method, known as the artificial Harris hawks optimisation (HHO), was employed to enhance the observer’s performance. This method eliminates the random parameter selection process and instead selects the optimal values for the observer. In a short amount of time, the secret message that could have been in the receiver portion (signal, voice, etc.) was successfully recovered using the proposed scheme. The experimental validation of the numerical results was carried out with the assistance of an Arduino microcontroller and several electronic components. In addition, the findings of the experiments were compared with the theoretical calculations, revealing a satisfactory level of agreement. Full article

Interest in studies on fractional calculus and its applications has greatly increased in recent years. Fractional-order analysis has the potential to enhance the dynamic structure of chaotic systems. This study presents the implementation of a lower-order fractional electronic circuit using standard components for the Sprott K system. To our knowledge, there are no chaotic circuit realizations in the literature where the value of a fractional-order parameter is approximately 0.8, making this study pioneering in this aspect. Additionally, various numerical analyses of the system are conducted, including chaotic time series and phase planes, Lyapunov exponents, spectral entropy (SE), and bifurcation diagrams, in order to examine its dynamic characteristics and complexity. As anticipated, the voltage outputs obtained from the oscilloscope demonstrated good agreement with both the numerical analysis and PSpice simulations. Full article
