A nonlinear state feedback controller was designed to generate hyperchaos from the original chaotic system. The hyperchaos was identified by the existence of two positive Lyapunov exponents, bifurcation diagram and phase diagrams. Furthermore, effective active controllers are designed for synchronizing the obtained hyperchaotic system with different chaotic systems. To illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach, numerical simulation results obtained with the L¨¹ and Qi chaotic systems are given. %K Synchronisation %K Active Control %K Hyperchaotification %U http://article.sapub.org/10.5923.j.control.20120204.03.html
