The synchronization of chaotic systems is a fundamental phenomenon in nonlinear dynamics. Most known synchronization techniques suggest that the trajectories of coupled systems converge at an exponential rate. However, this requires transferring a substantial data array to achieve complete synchronization between the master and slave oscillators. A recently developed approach, called time-reversible synchronization, has been shown to accelerate the convergence of trajectories. This approach is based on the special properties of time-symmetric integration. This technique allows for achieving the complete synchronization of discrete chaotic systems at a superexponential rate. However, the validity of time-reversible synchronization between discrete and continuous systems has remained unproven. In the current study, we expand the applicability of fast time-reversible synchronization to a case of digital and analog chaotic systems. A circuit implementation of the Sprott Case B was taken as an analog chaotic oscillator. Given that real physical systems possess more complicated dynamics than simplified models, analog system reidentification was performed to achieve a reasonable relevance between a discrete model and the circuit. The result of this study provides strong experimental evidence of fast time-reversible synchronization between analog and digital chaotic systems. This finding opens broad possibilities in reconstructing the phase dynamics of partially observed chaotic systems. Utilizing minimal datasets in such possible applications as chaotic communication, sensing, and system identification is a notable development of this research. Full article

In the past two decades, research in the field of chaotic synchronization has attracted extensive attention from scholars, and at the same time, more synchronization methods, such as chaotic master–slave synchronization, projection synchronization, sliding film synchronization, fractional-order synchronization and so on, have been proposed and applied to chaotic secure communication. In this paper, based on radial basis function neural network theory and the particle swarm optimisation algorithm, the RBFNN-PSO synchronisation method is proposed for the Sprott B chaotic system with external noise. The RBFNN controller is constructed, and its parameters are used as the particle swarm particle optimisation parameters, and the optimal values of the controller parameters are obtained by the PSO training method, which overcomes the influence of external noise and achieves the synchronisation of the master–slave system. Then, it is shown by numerical simulation and analysis that the scheme has a good performance against external noise. Because the Sprott B system has multiple chaotic attractors with richer dynamics, the synchronization system based on Sprott B chaos is applied to the image encryption system. In particular, the Zigzag disambiguation method for top corner rotation and RGB channel selection is proposed, and the master–slave chaotic system synchronisation sequences are diffused to the disambiguated data streams, respectively. Therefore, the encryption and decryption of image transmission are implemented and the numerical simulation results are given, the random distribution characteristics of encrypted images are analysed using histogram and Shannon entropy methods, and the final results achieve the expected results.

Studying simple chaotic systems with fractional-order derivatives improves modeling accuracy, increases complexity, and enhances control capabilities and robustness against noise. This paper investigates the dynamics of the simple Sprott-B chaotic system using fractional-order derivatives. This study involves a comprehensive dynamical analysis conducted through bifurcation diagrams, revealing the presence of coexisting attractors. Additionally, the synchronization behavior of the system is examined for various derivative orders. Finally, the integer-order and fractional-order electronic circuits are implemented to validate the theoretical findings. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of the Sprott-B system and its fractional-order dynamics, with potential applications in diverse fields such as chaos-based secure communications and nonlinear control systems.

In this paper, we first present a simple seven-term 4D hyperchaotic system based on the classical Sprott-C 3D chaotic system. This novel system is inspired by the simple 4D hyperchaotic system based on Sprott-B proposed by A. T. Sheet (2022). We discuss the phenomenon of premature divergence brought about by the improper choice of coupling parameters in that paper and describe the basic properties of the new system with phase diagrams, Lyapunov exponential spectra and bifurcation diagrams. Then, we find that the dynamical behaviors of the system suffer from the limitation of the control parameters and cannot represent the process of motion in detail. To improve the system, we expand the dimensionality and add the control parameters and memristors. A 5D memristive hyperchaotic system with hidden attractors is proposed, and the basic dynamical properties of the system, such as its dissipation, equilibrium point, stability, Lyapunov exponential spectra and bifurcation diagram, are analyzed. Finally, the hardware circuits of the 4D Sprott-C system and the 5D memristive hyperchaotic system were realized by a field programmable gate array (FPGA) and verified by an experiment. The experimental results are consistent with the numerical simulation results obtained in MATLAB, which demonstrates the feasibility and potential of the system. Full article
