Abstract
Kuramoto models (KMs) in scalar or high-dimensional form can describe the synchronization phenomenon for large populations of coupled oscillators in networks of dynamical systems such as power grids, satellite mobile sensing networks, etc. However, these models are developed based on continuous-time coupling among oscillators, which is not applicable to networks where the coupling between oscillators occurs only at impulsive instants. Herein, we propose for the first time a generalized high-dimensional Kuramoto oscillator network (HDKON) with variable-gain impulsive coupling on the unit sphere. The proposed HDKON can be reduced to a scalar form comprising a sinusoidal function, thereby generalizing the scalar KM in both temporal and spatial domains. Furthermore, we provide some variation coefficients of the synchronization errors for the oscillator pairs at impulsive instants, and derive a sufficient condition for the exponential synchronization of the HDKON with identical natural frequency. Moreover, we consider an HDKON with a central oscillator and demonstrate that peripheral oscillators almost globally exponentially synchronize to the central oscillator under a sufficient condition. Finally, numerical simulations are performed to verify the main theoretical results.
