| Abstract: | This thesis addresses two important issues that are applicable to chaotic communication systems: synchronization of chaos and controlling chaos. Synchronization of chaos is a naturally occurring phenomenon where one chaotic dynamical system mimics dynamical behavior of another chaotic system. The phenomenon of chaotic synchronization is a popular topic of research, in general, and has attracted much attention within the scientific community. Controlling chaos is another potential engineering application. A unique property of controlling chaos is the ability to cause large long-term impact on the dynamics using arbitrarily small perturbations. This thesis is broken up into three chapters. The first chapter contains a brief introduction to the areas of research of the thesis work, as well as the summaries the work itself. The second chapter is dedicated to the study of a particular situation of chaotic synchronization which leads to a novel structure of the basin of attraction. This ch... |
