A New 4D Chaotic System with Coexisting Hidden Chaotic Attractors
A new 4D chaotic system with infinitely many equilibria is proposed using a linear state feedback controller in the Sprott C system. Although the new 4D chaotic system has only two nonlinear terms, it has rich dynamic characteristics, such as hidden attractors and coexisting attractors. Besides, the freedom of offset boosting of a variable is achieved by adjusting a controlled constant. The dynamic characteristics of the new chaotic system are fully analyzed from the aspects of phase portraits, bifurcation diagrams, Lyapunov exponents and Poincaré maps. The corresponding analogue electronic circuit is designed and implemented to verify the new 4D chaotic system. By taking advantage of the complex dynamic properties of the new chaotic system, a random number generator algorithm is proposed.
