Finite-time chaos synchronization and its application in wireless sensor networks
This paper considers the finite-time chaos synchronization of Chua chaotic oscillators based on the secure communication scheme in wireless sensor networks. The modified Chua oscillators are added to the base station and sensor nodes to generate the chaotic signals. Two methods are proposed for the finite-time synchronization of the modified Chua systems with uncertain parameters. In the first method, by using the Lyapunov stability theory, control law is suggested to achieve finite-time chaos synchronization. In order to increase the robustness of the controller, in the second method, a sliding mode controller is applied to the wireless sensor network. Synchronization between the base station and each of the sensor nodes is realized by multiplying a selection matrix by the specified chaotic signal, which is broadcasted by the base station to the sensor nodes. The mathematical proofs confirm that the proposed control law is correct and finally, the simulation results are presented to show the efficiency of the proposed technique.
