In this paper, the relation between synchronization and control of chaotic nodes connected through a time–varying network is discussed. In particular, the effects of pinning control on a set of moving chaotic agents are investigated showing that the role of system parameters, like agent density, is critical in order to reach the synchronous behavior and also to control the whole network by pinn...

This paper presents a set of linearized equations was derived for the motion, relative to an elliptical reference orbit, of an object influenced by J2 perturbation terms. Approximate solution for simulations was used to compare these equations and the linearized keplerian equations to the exact equations. The inclusion of the linearized perturbations in the derived equations increased the high ...

This paper investigates the problem of decentralized model reference adaptive control (MRAC) for a class of large scale systems with time varying delays in interconnected terms and state and input delays. The upper bounds of the interconnection terms are considered to be unknown. Time varying delays in the nonlinear interconnection terms are bounded and nonnegative continuous functions and thei...

The random coding capacity of a vector Gaussian arbitrarily varying channel (VGAVC) is determined, along with a simple general method for computing this capacity. The VGAVC is a discrete-time memoryless vector channel with an input power constraint and additive Gaussian noise that is further corrupted by an additive “jamming signal.” The statistics of this jamming signal are unknown and may be ...

The Gaussian arbitrarily varying channel with input constraint r and state constraint 2 admits input sequences x = ( x l , , x , ~ ) of real numbers with Cxf 5 nT and state sequences s = ( 5 ,. , T , ~ ) of real numbers with L Y ~ 5 H A ; the output sequence x + s + V , where V = ( VI, , y , ) is a sequence of independent and identically distributed Gaussian random variables with mean 0 and var...
