Abstract: Based on the stability theory of impulsive differential equation, a pulse synchronization control method for a class of chaotic systems is proposed. The global asymptotical synchronization of two chaotic systems is realized simply by using the linear error feedback from the state variables of drive and response systems as pulse control signal. Two criterions are thus given to guarantee the global asymptotical synchronization of the two chaotic systems, which could be simplified in case their pulse control matrices and pulse intervals are the same. The method is applicable to a large class of chaotic systems. A controller is therefore designed with Lorenz chaotic system as an example, which is simple and easy to implement with high convergence rate. The theoretic analysis and numerical simulation verified the effectiveness of the method.
