Generalized Synchronization in Laser Devices with Electro-Optical Feedback

Abstract

We report on partial and global generalized synchronization in exemplar bidirectionally coupled non-identical chaotic systems with multiple time delays. We derive conditions for such synchronization regimes. The general approach is applied to the case of multiple time delay laser systems with electro-optical feedback. We also study the effect of signal sampling on the signatures of time delays in the autocorrelation function of the multiple time delay laser output.
