Hyperchaotic behaviors, optimal control, and synchronization of a nonautonomous cardiac conduction system

摘要

In this paper, the hyperchaos analysis, optimal control, and synchronization of a nonautonomous cardiac conduction system are investigated. We mainly analyze, control, and synchronize the associated hyperchaotic behaviors using several approaches. More specifically, the related nonlinear mathematical model is firstly introduced in the forms of both integer- and fractional-order differential equations. Then the related hyperchaotic attractors and phase portraits are analyzed. Next, effectual optimal control approaches are applied to the integer- and fractional-order cases in order to overcome the obnoxious hyperchaotic performance. In addition, two identical hyperchaotic oscillators are synchronized via an adaptive control scheme and an active controller for the integer- and fractional-order mathematical models, respectively. Simulation results confirm that the new nonlinear fractional model shows a more flexible behavior than its classical counterpart due to its memory effects. Numerical results are also justified theoretically, and computational experiments illustrate the efficacy of the proposed control and synchronization strategies.
