title: Effect of mixed coupling on relay-coupled Rössler and Lorenz oscillators.
abstract: The complete synchronization between the outermost oscillators using the mixed coupling in relay coupled systems is studied. Mixed coupling has two types of coupling functions: coupling between similar or dissimilar variables. We examine the complete synchronization in relay-coupled systems by the largest transverse Lyapunov exponent and synchronization error. We show numerically for Rössler and Lorenz oscillators that the combination of these two types of coupling functions is able to decrease the critical coupling strength for complete synchronization as well as it also suppress oscillations for larger coupling strength.
