Generalized fractional logistic map encryption system based on FPGA

This paper introduces the design of a generalized fractional order logistic map suitable for pseudorandom number key generators and its application in an encryption system based on FPGA. The map is generalized through two parameters (a,b) where complete analysis of their effect on the map is detailed, which gives more control on the map chaotic regions. The vertical map and the zooming map

Three Fractional-Order-Capacitors-Based Oscillators with Controllable Phase and Frequency

This paper presents a generalization of six well-known quadrature third-order oscillators into the fractional-order domain. The generalization process involves replacement of three integer-order capacitors with fractional-order ones. The employment of fractional-order capacitors allows a complete tunability of oscillator frequency and phase. The presented oscillators are implemented with three

Generalized family of fractional-order oscillators based on single CFOA and RC network

This paper presents a generalized family of fractional-order oscillators based on single CFOA and RC network. Five RC networks are investigated with their general state matrix, and design equations. The general oscillation frequency, condition and the phase difference between the oscillatory outputs are introduced in terms of the fractional order parameters. They add extra degrees of freedom which

Chaos synchronisation of continuous systems via scalar signal

By analyzing the issue of chaos synchronization in the literature, it can be noticed the lack of a general approach, which would enable any type of synchronization to be achieved. Similarly, there is the lack of a unified method for synchronizing both continuous-time and discrete-time systems via a scalar signal. This paper and the companion one [1] aim to bridge these two gaps by presenting a
