Abstract: A lag synchronization controller is designed in studying discrete chaotic systems with diverse structures to realize synchronization between Henon and Ikeda systems. The structure of the lag synchronization controller and the error equations of state variables between discrete chaotic systems are presented based on the stability theory. The designed controller has unique structures for different chaotic systems. Lag synchronization between any discrete chaotic systems with diverse structures can be achieved. Simulation results show that this control method is effective and feasible.
