Summary

This study introduces a recursive proportional feedback (RPF) control strategy to stabilize unstable periodic orbits in chaotic systems. The method effectively targets fixed points, even in high-dimensional systems, and can be automated for experimental applications.

Area of Science:

  • Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos Theory
  • Control Systems Engineering
  • Experimental Physics

Background:

  • Chaotic systems often exhibit unstable periodic orbits (UPOs) that are difficult to control.
  • Traditional control methods struggle with high-dimensional systems and completely unstable orbits.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present and analyze a recursive proportional feedback (RPF) control strategy for stabilizing UPOs.
  • To demonstrate the general applicability of RPF to high-dimensional chaotic systems.
  • To introduce an automated adaptive learning algorithm for RPF implementation.

Main Methods:

  • Recursive Proportional Feedback (RPF) control strategy.
  • Geometric interpretation using an extended phase space.
  • Automated adaptive learning algorithm for real-time control.

    • Main Results:

    • RPF can stabilize UPOs even with no stable manifolds.
    • The controlled system reaches the fixed point in d+1 steps (d=Poincare map dimension).
    • An automated RPF system successfully stabilized a period-one orbit in an experimental setup.
    • Controllability conditions and limitations for multiply unstable orbits were discussed.

    Conclusions:

    • RPF is a versatile and effective method for controlling UPOs in chaotic systems.
    • The automated adaptive learning algorithm enables RPF application to unknown experimental dynamics.
    • This approach offers a robust way to stabilize complex dynamical systems.
