Generalized state-space observers for chaotic synchronization and secure communication

In this brief, a simple and useful technique for both synchronization and secure communication of chaotic systems is developed. The proposed approach is based on generalized state space observer design for a class of nonlinear systems. By means of regular transformations we show that asymptotic stability is assured under mild conditions. To show accuracy and high performances of the proposed method, the well-known chaotic Lorentz system will be considered as an illustrative example
