The scheme was based on occasional coupling of transmitter and receiver systems. The occasional synchronization scheme consists of the application of synchronization and autonomous phases periodically. The study showed that the proposed scheme was robust with respect to noise and parameter mismatch under certain conditions.EnglishComputer simulationCoupled circuitsDiscrete time control systemsError analysisParameter estimationRobustness (control systems)Signal encodingSignal receiversSwitching circuitsSynchronizationTransmittersChaotic masking methodChaos theorySynchronization and chaotic masking scheme based on occasional couplingArticle10.1103/PhysRevE.62.3543
