A remarkably simple electronic circuit design based on the chaotic Lorenz system is described. The circuit consists of just two active nonlinear elements (high-speed analog multipliers) and a few passive linear elements. Experimental implementations of the circuit exhibit the classic butterfly attractor and the hysteretic transition from steady state to chaos observed in the Lorenz equations. The simplicity of the circuit makes it suitable for radio frequency applications. The power spectrum of…

Synchronization of Lorenz-based chaotic circuits with applications to communications
TLDR
An analogy between synchronization in chaotic systems, nonlinear observers for deterministic systems, and state estimation in probabilistic systems is established and the performance of the Lorenz SCS is compared to an extended Kalman filter for providing state estimates when the measurement consists of a single noisy transmitter component.
Limiter Control of a Chaotic RF Transistor oscillator
TLDR
Experimental control of chaos in an electronic circuit at 43.9 MHz is reported, which is the fastest chaos control reported in the literature to date, thereby providing strong evidence that the controlled state is an unstable periodic orbit (UPO) of the uncontrolled system.

Chaos without nonlinear dynamics.
TLDR
A linear, second-order filter driven by randomly polarized pulses is shown to generate a waveform that is chaotic under time reversal, which suggests that chaos may be connected to physical theories whose underlying framework is not that of a traditional deterministic nonlinear dynamical system.
