Abstract
In this paper, an adaptive control approach is designed for compensating the delays, packet losses and nonlinearities in the networked chaotic systems and maintaining the acceptable system stability. A state-feedback adaptive control scheme for unknown chaotic multi-input systems is proposed. Based on Lyapunov–Krasovskii theory, a normalized adaptive control law is synthesized to accommodate delays and system nonlinearities. Illustrative examples are studied. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the design method.
