A Multiring Julia Fractal Chaotic System With Separated-Scroll Attractors

Abstract

Fractal and chaos are two major phenomena in nonlinear systems. A few combinations of chaos with fractal for generating multiscroll attractors are reported. Thus, based on Chua multiscroll chaotic systems, a novel multiring chaotic system is proposed via Julia multifractal processes. The main purpose of this work is to make up for the deficiency of various fractal processes to further improve the performance of chaotic systems. A new class of multiscroll attractors is generated by combining different fractal processes, including symmetrical multiring attractor, separated multiring attractor, and nested multiring attractor. Furthermore, dynamic behaviors of the fractal chaotic system are analyzed by means of Lyapunov exponents and bifurcation diagram to indicate that the system exhibits chaotic characteristics. Experiments on the spectrum entropy (SE) complexity and image encryption performance demonstrate the good performance of the proposed fractal-based attractors. To verify the feasibility of multiring chaotic system, the various fractal-based attractors generated are implemented by micro controller unit (MCU), and the separated multiring attractors are observed on the digital oscilloscope.
