Isochronous cluster synchronization in delay-coupled VCSEL networks subjected to variable-polarization optical
Abstract:
The isochronous cluster synchronization with time delay (TD) signature suppression in delay-coupled vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) networks subject to variable-polarization optical injection (VPOI) is theoretically and numerically studied. Based on the inherent symmetries of network topology, parameter spaces for stable cluster synchronization are presented, and zero-lag synchronization are achieved for VCSELs in same clusters. Additionally, the TD signature reduction for the dynamics of VCSELs in the stable clusters are systematically discussed. It is shown that both moderate polarizer angle and frequency detuning between different clusters have strengthen the effect of TD signature suppression. Moreover, the isochronous cluster synchronization with TD signature concealment is also verified in another VPOI-VCSEL network with different topology, indicating the generality of proposed results. Our results shed a new light on the research of chaos synchronization and chaos-based secure communications in VCSEL networks.

Cluster Sampling Method
To choose a cluster sample, divide the population into clusters (groups) and then randomly select some of the clusters. All the members from these clusters are in the cluster sample. For example, if you randomly sample four departments from your...
