A NEW CNN-BASED CHAOTIC CIRCUIT: EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS

Abstract

In this note the dissipative form of the nonlinear oscillator proposed in [Pokrovskii et al., 2007] is introduced. The behavior of such system is investigated through an experimental implementation of the circuit realized using electronic devices. The proposed implementation of the dissipative nonlinear oscillator, based on Cellular Nonlinear Networks, is fully described and the characterization of the rich dynamical behavior of the circuit performed, disclosing the wide range of dynamical behaviors assumed with respect to different values of the forcing frequency. Moreover, a master–slave scheme has been proposed to synchronize two dissipative oscillators in the chaotic regime. The onset of synchronization is proved both theoretically and experimentally.
