Abstract
In this article, a scheme using active backstepping design method is proposed to achieve combination synchronization of n number of fractional order chaotic systems. In the proposed method the controllers are designed with the help of a new lemma and Lyapunov function in a systematic way. Synchronization among three/four fractional order systems have been shown as examples of synchronization of n-chaotic systems. Numerical simulation and graphical results clearly exhibit that the method of this new procedure is easy to implement and reliable for synchronization of fractional order chaotic systems.
1 Introduction
The theory of fractional calculus deals with derivatives and integrals of arbitrary order and has applications in various scientific field and engineering including viscoelasticity, fluid mechanics, material science, colored noise, dielectric polarization, electromagnetic wave, bioengineering, biological model, electromechanical system, etc. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11]. The fractional differential equations are the generalization of classical differential equations. The advantage of fractional order system is it allows greater flexibility in the model. The fractional order differential operator is non local but integer order differential operator is a local operator in the sense that fractional order differential operator takes into account the fact that the future state not only depends upon the present state but also upon all of the histories of its previous states. For this realistic property, fractional calculus which was in earlier stage considered as mathematical curiosity now becomes the object of extensive development of fractional order partial differential equations for its the purpose of engineering applications.
Chaos synchronization is an interesting phenomenon of nonlinear dynamical systems and it may occur when two or more chaotic systems are coupled or one chaotic system drives the other. The synchronization of chaotic systems was first given by Pecora and Carroll [12] in 1960, and after which it has been intensively studied due to its potential applications in various fields viz., ecological system, physical system, chemical system, secure communications etc [13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22]. In recent years various types of synchronization have been investigated such as complete synchronization, anti-synchronization, lag synchronization, adaptive synchronization, projective synchronization, function projective synchronization etc [23, 24, 25, 26] and also different schemes have been successfully applied to chaos synchronization viz., linear and nonlinear feedback control method, active control method, adaptive control method, sliding mode control method, backstepping method etc [27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34].
The method here to use is backstepping design, which has been employed by many researchers for controlling and synchronizing chaotic systems as well as hyperchaotic systems. It consists in a recursive procedure that links the choice of a Lyapunov function with the design of a controller. Backstepping design is recognised as powerful design method for chaos synchronization. The design can guarantee global stability, tracking and transient performance for a broad class of strict-feedback nonlinear systems [35, 36, 37]. To stabilize and track chaotic systems, the method had been successfully used by Mascolo and Grassi [38] in the year 1999. In 2006, the backstepping control was used by Bin et al. [39] to synchronize two coupled chaotic neurons in external electrical stimulation. Wang and Ge [40] proposed the Adaptive synchronization of uncertain chaotic systems via backstepping design. Backstepping design was successfully applied by Tan et al. [41] during synchronization of the chaotic systems and also by Yu and Zhand [42] to control the uncertain behavior of chaotic systems. Recently, Park [43], Wu et al. [44] have shown that the backstepping method is very simple, reliable and powerful for controlling the chaotic behavior and synchronization of chaotic systems. But to the best of authors’ knowledge the synchronization of fractional order systems using backstepping control has not yet been studied by any researcher. The theme of the present study is to investigate the synchronization procedure for a number of fractional order chaotic systems using this simple and reliable backstepping method. In our earlier article [45], active control method and backstepping approach are used to synchronize the fractional order chaotic systems. The fractional order Chen and Qi systems are taken to synchronize using both the methods. It was shown that the backstepping method takes less time to synchronize as the systems pair approaches from standard order to fractional order. This has motivated the authors to find the required time of synchronization among three/four fractional order chaotic systems.
Initially the prediction of a system had been confined through finding the analytical solution of the formal modelling of the systems via mathematical modelling with a set of parameters and initial/boundary conditions. But after the advent of modern computers and related software packages, the simulation has become a useful technique of modelling of many streams of science and engineering as well as computational sociology. Nowadays it is used in technology to optimize the performance, safety engineering, also during modelling of natural and human systems. Simulation is described as the limitation of operation of a real world system over time. Thus before performing simulation, it requires to develop a model which will represent key features of the selected physical or abstract systems. Thus simulation basically represents the operation of the system over time. During synchronization of identical or non-identical chaotic systems the simulation is used to find requirement of minimum time after which the states of slave system behave similar to the master system.
The synchronization of three chaotic dynamical systems in integer order are first studied by the Runzi et al. [46] in 2011. In 2013 Zhang et al. [47] studied the combination synchronization of different kinds of spatiotemporal coupled systems with unknown parameters. In 2016 the combination synchronization of different kinds of spatiotemporal coupled systems with unknown parameters is studied by Wang et al. [48]. It is seen from literature survey that the synchronization between three and more chaotic systems are few in numbers. Runzi et al. [46] had stated the cause of investigation between two drive systems and one response system through a physical application in secure communication as transmitted signals can be split into several parts, each part loaded in different drive systems which shows that transmitted signals have stronger anti-attack ability and anti-translated capability than that transmitted by the usual transmission model. This has motivated the authors to study the generalization of synchronization between chaotic systems, when the systems have memory effects. The main contribution of the present scientific contribution is introduction of a new type of synchronization scheme known as combination synchronization which used to synchronize a number of fractional order chaotic systems. The backstepping method is applied during synchronization of fractional order chaotic systems using Lyapunov stability theory and a new lemma for Caputo derivative. The combination synchronization of three and four fractional order chaotic systems are found through numerical simulation which is presented graphically to show the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed scheme and method. The salient feature of the present study is the pictorial presentation of requirement of less time during synchronization of four systems compared to three systems.
The article is organized as follows: In section 2, the definition and Lemma for Caputo derivative in fractional order case are introduced. Section 3 includes the combination synchronization scheme of fractional order n-chaotic systems are presented. In section 4, the fractional order chaotic systems are introduced. Sections 5 and 6 contain the combination synchronization of three and four chaotic systems using backstepping design respectively. Section 5.1 and 6.1 provides numerical simulation results and followed by a conclusion of the overall research work given in Section 7.
2 Basic definitions of Fractional order derivative and Lemma
The definitions of fractional order derivative given by B Riemann and J. Liouville and also by M. Caputo are as follows.
Definition 1
The Riemann–Liouville (R-L) fractional derivative operator of order q > 0 of a function f(t) is defined by [49]
where the fractional integral operator of order q > 0 of a function f(t) is given by
with
Definition 2
The Caputo order fractional derivative of a function f(t) is [50, 51]
where
Between these two, the Caputo derivative is commonly used by the researchers. The main difference of considering the Caputo derivative is that its derivative of a constant is zero whereas in the case of finite value of lower terminal ′a′ the R-L derivative of a constant is
Another reason of choosing Caputo derivative is that it holds for homogeneous and non-homogeneous initial conditions whereas R-L derivative require homogeneous initial condition during the solution of initial value problems.
Lemma 1
[52] Letx(t) ∈ R be a continuous and derivable function. Then for any time instant t ≥ t0,
3 The scheme of combination synchronization of fractional order n-chaotic systems
In this scheme, (n-1) drive systems and one response system are assumed to be in fractional order system.
The drive systems are considered as
and the response system is taken as
where
Definition
The fractional order (n-1) drive systems and one response system follow combination synchronization among n-chaotic systems if there exists n constant matrixes called scaling matrixes A1, A2, ....., An ∈ Rn with An ≠ 0 such that
It is noted that if A1 ≠ 0, A2 = A3 = ......... = An − 1 = 0, An = I then this problem is reduced to the projective synchronization, where I is an n × n identity matrix. If the scaling matrix A1 is considered as a function, then synchronization problem is reduced into function projective synchronization problem. Again if A1 = A2 = ......... = An − 1 = 0, then the problem becomes a chaos control problem.
4 Systems’ descriptions
4.1 Fractional order Newton-Leipnik system
The fractional order Newton-Leipnik system [53] was first studied in the year 2008, which is given by
where a1 and a2 are the variable parameters’ and a2 ∈ (0, 0.8). The system is ill-behaved when a2 takes the values outside of this interval. If a2 becomes close to zero, the system shows uninteresting dynamic and if a2 ≥ 0.8, the given system becomes explosive i.e., the solution of this system diverges to infinity for any initial condition other than the critical points.
For the parameters’ values a1 = 0.4, a2 = 0.175 and the initial condition (0.19, 0, −0.18), the Newton-Leipnik system shows chaotic behaviour at q = 0.95 which is depicted through Fig. 1(a).

4.2 Fractional order Liu system
The Liu system [54] was studied in the year 2009, which was later extended to fractional order Liu system by Gejji and Bhalekar [55] in 2010 as
The phase portrait of the system is described through Fig. 1(b), which shows that the system exhibits chaos at the lowest fractional order q = 0.92 for the values of parameters b1 = 1, b2 = 2.5, b3 = 5, b4 = 1, b5 = 4, b6 = 4 and initial condition (0.2, 0, 0.5). The chaos control of Liu system is given in [56]. The trajectories of the system are controlled at its all equilibrium points for order of the derivative 0 < q ≤ 1.
4.3 Fractional order Lotka-Voltra system
The fractional order Lotka-Voltra system [57] is given as
The chaotic attractor of the system is described through Fig. 1(c) at q = 0.95 for the values of the parameters c1 = c2 = c3 = c4 = 1, c5 = 2, c6 = 2.7, c7 = 3 and initial condition (1, 1.4, 1).
4.4 Fractional order Chen system
The fractional order Chen system [58] is considered as
Fig. 1(d) shows the chaotic attractors of the system at the fractional order q = 0.95 for the parameters’ values d1 = 35, d2 = 3, d3 = 28 and the initial condition (1, 1.4, 1). The chaos control of Chen system is given in [58]. The system is controlled at order q = 0.9, q = 0.8 at its equilibrium points. The trajectories of the system is stable at all the equilibrium points of the system and it will also remain be controlled for order 0 < q ≤ 1.
5 Synchronization of fractional order Newton-Leipnik, Lotka-Voltra and Liu systems
For the study of synchronization among three fractional order chaotic systems, two systems Newton-Leipnik (5) and Lotka-Voltra (7) are considered as drive system-I and drive system-II and third system Liu system is considered as response system. The response system with the control functions u1, u2, u3 is defined as
Defining the error functions as ei = yi − zi − xi, i = 1, 2, 3, we obtain the error system as
where φ1 = −b1(z1 + x1) − b4(z2 + x2) − c1z1 + c2z1z2 −
Now the control functions would be designed using backstepping approach for combination synchronization of three fractional order chaotic systems.
Theorem 1
If the control functions are chosen as
where v1 = e1, v2 = e2, v3 = e3, then the drive system I & II will be combination synchronized with response system.
Proof
To achieve the results, let us use the active backstepping procedure through following three steps.
Step-I: Defining v1 = e1, we get
where e2 = α1(v1) is regarded as a virtual controller. For designing α1(v1) to stabilizev1 - subsystem, choosing the Lyapunov function V1 as
The-th order fractional derivative of V1 w. r. to t is
If we take α1(v1) = 0 and u1 = φ1, then
we obtain the following (v1, v2) -subsystem as
where e3 = α2 (v1, v2) is regarded as an virtual controller.
Step II: To stabilize (v1, v2) - subsystem (12), choose Lyapunov function as
The order fractional derivative of V2 w. r. to t is
i.e. ≤ − b1
If α2(v1, v2) = 0 andu2 = b5v1(z3 + x3) − b2v2 + b4v1 − v2 − φ2, then
Again defining the error variable as
the (v1, v2, v3) - subsystem becomes
Step III: To stabilize the (v1, v2, v3) - subsystem (13), choosing the Lyapunov function V3 as
The fractional derivative of V3 is
i.e. ≤ − b1
Taking u3 = −b6v1 (z2 +x2) +(b5 − b6) v2 (z1 +x1) +(b5 − b6) v1v2 − φ3, we obtain
5.1 Numerical simulation and results
In the numerical simulation the parameters’ values of the fractional order Newton-Leipnik, Lotka-Voltra and Liu systems are taken as a1 = 0.4, a2 = 0.175, and b1 = 1, b2 = 2.5, b3 = 5, b4 = 1, b5 = 4, b6 = 4 respectively. The initial conditions of two drive systems and response system are taken as (0.19, 0, −0.18), and (0.2, 0, 0.5) respectively. Fig. 2 shows the synchronization among three fractional order chaotic systems are achieved through backstepping approach at q = 0.95. Figs. 2(a), 2(b) and 2(c) depict the time response of the state trajectories xi(t) + zi(t) and yi(t), where i = 1, 2, 3 represent the drive systems (5), (7) and response system (9) respectively.

6 Synchronization of fractional order Newton-Leipnik, Liu, Lotka-Voltra systems and Chen system
In this section to synchronize four fractional order chaotic systems, we consider fractional order Newton-Leipnik system (5), fractional order Liu system (6) and fractional order Lotka-Voltra system (7) as the drive systems I, II and III respectively. The fractional order Chen system (8) is taken as response system with control function
Defining error functions as ei = wi −zi − yi −xi, i = 1, 2, 3, we obtain the error system as
where
Next the control functions
Theorem: 2
If the control functions are chosen as
where v1 = e1, v2 = e2, v3 = e3, then the drive systems (5), (6) and (7) will be combination synchronized with response system (14).
Proof
For synchronization, backstepping procedure is used through following steps.
Step-I: Considering v1 = e1,
where e2 = α1 (v1) is regarded as a virtual controller. To stabilize v1 -subsystem, let us define the Lyapunov function V1 as
whose fractional derivative is
Taking α1(v1) = 0 and
Then (v1, v2)-subsystem is obtained as
Let us consider v3 = α2 (v1, v2) is a virtual controller.
Step II: In this step to stabilize (v1, v2)-subsystem (17), let us define the Lyapunov function V2 as
Now
Taking α2 (v1, v2) = 0 and
Considering v3 = e3 − α2 (v1, v2), the (v1, v2, v3) - subsystem is obtained as
Step III: In order to stabilize (v1, v2, v3) - subsystem (18), choosing the Lyapunov function as
we get
If
6.1 Numerical simulation and results
During synchronization the earlier values of the parameters and initial conditions for drive systems I, II, III and response system are considered. The time step size is taken as 0.005. The synchronization among four fractional order chaotic systems are achieved through Fig. 3 using the same method at q = 0.95. Figs. 3(a), 3(b) and 3(c) show the time response of the states xi(t) + yi(t) +i(t) and wi(t), where i = 1, 2, 3 represent the drive systems (5), (6), (7) and the response system (8). The error states for this case are described through Fig. 3(d). It is noticed that it takes less time for synchronization among four systems (Fig. 3(d)) compared to that of three systems (Fig. 2(d)) for the considered systems in both fractional order as well as integer order case (Fig. 4).

7 Conclusion
In the present study, the combination synchronization among a number of fractional order drive and response systems is successfully demonstrated using backstepping method. For validation, the combination synchronization of three and four systems are considered separately taking two systems and three systems as drive system respectively, while one system as response system, which clearly exhibit that the applied method is effective and convenient to achieve global synchronization of a number of non-identical fractional order chaotic systems. The exhibition of requirement of less time during synchronization of four systems compared to three systems is one of the major contributions of the present study. It is worth mentioning that this scientific contribution of combination synchronization among the fractional order chaotic systems will be significant to the research community involved in the area of modelling of fractional order dynamical systems.
