Adaptive synchronization of two chaotic systems consisting of modified Van der Pol–Duffing and Chua oscillators

In this paper, chaos synchronization between two chaotic systems consisting of modified Van der Pol–Duffing (MVDPD) and Chua oscillators is studied. Such a problem is related to chaos synchronization of different systems. An adaptive feedback synchronization with two controllers is proposed to ensure global chaos synchronization of the modified Van der Pol–Duffing and Chua circuit oscillators. Numerical simulations show the effectiveness of the proposed control method. Moreover, as an application, the proposed scheme is then applied to secure communication whose process consists of a robust filter that recovers the information signal from the scalar transmitted signal. Also, simulation results verify the proposed scheme’s success in the communication application.
