H∞ synchronization of chaotic systems via delayed feedback control
H∞ Synchronization of Chaotic Systems via Delayed Feedback Control

The H ∞ synchronization problem for a class of delayed chaotic systems with external disturbance is investigated. A novel delayed feedback controller is established under which the chaotic master and slave systems are synchronized with a guaranteed H ∞ performance. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, a delay-dependent condition is derived and formulated in the form of linear matrix inequality (LMI). A numerical simulation is also presented to validate the effectiveness of the developed theoretical results.
