title: Chaos synchronization and parameter estimation from a scalar output signal.
abstract: We propose an observer-based approach for chaos synchronization and parameter estimation from a scalar output signal. To begin with, we use geometric control to transform the master system into a standard form with zero dynamics. Then we construct a slaver to synchronize with the master using a combination of slide mode control and linear feedback control. Within a finite time, partial synchronization is realized, which further results in complete synchronization as time tends to infinity. Even if there exists model uncertainty in the slaver, we can also estimate the unknown model parameter by a simple adaptive rule.
