Oscillator with Line of Equilibiria and Nonlinear Function Terms: Stability Analysis, Chaos, and Application for Secure Communications

Abstract

We explore an oscillator with nonlinear functions and equilibrium lines that displays chaos. The equilibrium stability and complexity of the oscillator have been analysed and investigated. The presence of multiple equilibrium lines sets it apart from previously reported oscillators. The synchronization of the oscillator is considered as an application for secure communications. An observer is designed by considering a transmitted signal as a state, in other words, by injecting a linear function satisfying Lipschitz’s condition to the proposed oscillator. Moreover, the adaptive control of the new oscillator is obtained.
