This paper is concerned with the problem of exponential synchronization for chaotic systems with time-varying delays by using periodically intermittent control. Some new and useful synchronization criteria are obtained based on the differential inequality method and the analysis technique. It is noteworthy that the methods used in this paper are different from the techniques employed in the existing works, and the derived conditions are less conservative. Especially, a strong constraint on the control width that the control width should be large than the time delay imposed by the current references is released in this paper. Moreover, the new synchronization criteria do not impose any restriction on the size of time delay. Numerical examples are finally presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
