Abstract

The design and implementation of memristive chaotic systems with switchable equilibria and rich dynamic behaviors have become an important research direction in nonlinear science, owing to their unique potential in engineering applications. In this paper, a non-ideal absolute-value memristor is embedded into a three-dimensional chaotic system (NE2), constructing a memristive chaotic system (MCS) with multiple types of equilibrium points. By changing the system parameters, the switching between the states with and without equilibrium points can be achieved. This paper analyzes the dynamic characteristics of MCS using bifurcation diagrams, Lyapunov exponents, and phase projections. It discovers that MCS has multi-parameter amplitude modulation and partial mirror symmetry. Meanwhile, under different parameter settings, MCS can generate a wide variety of chaotic and periodic attractors. The reliability of the theoretical analysis is verified through corresponding circuit experiments, and the oscilloscope measurements are highly consistent with the theoretical conclusions, confirming the validity of the constructed chaotic system and laying the foundation for its practical application.
