A novel memristor-based chaotic system with line equilibria and its complex dynamics.

Memristor, as a nonlinear element, provides many advantages thanks to its superior properties to design different chaotic circuits. Thus, a novel four-dimensional double-scroll chaotic system with line equilibria as well as two unstable equilibria based on the flux-memristor model is proposed in this paper. The effects of initial values and parameters on the dynamic characteristics of the system are studied in detail by means of phase diagrams, Lyapunov exponent spectrums, bifurcation diagrams, two-parameter bifurcation diagrams and basins of attraction. Besides, a series of complex phenomena in the system, such as sustained chaos, bistability, transient chaos and coexisting attractors are observed, proving that the chaotic system has rich dynamic characteristics. Also, spectral entropy (SE) complexity algorithm and C 0 complexity algorithm based on structure complexity are adopted to analyze the complexity of the system. Additionally, PSPICE circuit simulation and Micro-Controller Unit (MCU) hardware experiment are carried out to verify the correctness of theoretical analysis and numerical simulation. Finally, the pulse chaos synchronization is achieved from the perspective of maximum Lyapunov exponent, and numerical simulations demonstrate the occurrence of the proposed system and practicability of the pulse synchronization control.
