Abstract

Two X-band microwave Gunn oscillators have been separately operated with "below threshold" dc bias voltages under the influence of an injected weak RF field in their respective cavities to generate chaotic oscillations. The output of one such chaotic Gunn oscillator is injected into the other through a controllable coupling network to explore the possibility of synchronization between two oscillators. We establish through numerical simulation that (i) two oscillators with identical design parameters attain a state of complete synchronization and (ii) two oscillators with slightly different design parameters attain a state of generalized synchronization for reasonable value of coupling strengths. The occurrence of generalized synchronization has been proved through the "auxiliary" slave system approach of nonlinear analysis. Results of hardware experiments are incorporated to qualitatively support the observations made through numerical simulation.
