Sliding mode synchronization of fractional-order complex chaotic system with parametric and external disturbances.

Abstract In this paper, the synchronization of two fractional-order complex chaotic systems with unknown parameters and external disturbances are studied. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory and fractional-order integral sliding surface, a novel active sliding mode controller is proposed to synchronize fractional-order complex chaotic systems. Moreover, the controller is robust to unknown parameters and external disturbances. Numerical simulations are implemented. Results indicate the proposed control strategy is robust and effective.
