Parameter estimation method for a linear frequency modulation signal with a Duffing oscillator based on frequency periodicity

In view of the complexity of existing linear frequency modulation(LFM)signal parameter estimation methods and the poor antinoise performance and estimation accuracy under a low signal-to-noise ratio(SNR),a parameter estimation method for LFM signals with a Duffing oscillator based on frequency periodicity is proposed in this paper.This method utilizes the characteristic that the output signal of the Duffing oscillator excited by the LFM signal changes periodically with frequency,and the modulation period of the LFM signal is estimated by autocorrelation processing of the output signal of the Duffing oscillator.On this basis,the corresponding relationship between the reference frequency of the frequencyaligned Duffing oscillator and the frequency range of the LFM signal is analyzed by the periodic power spectrum method,and the frequency information of the LFM signal is determined.Simulation results show that this method can achieve high-accuracy parameter estimation for LFM signals at an SNR of-25 dB.

JUMP AND BIFURCATION OF DUFFING OSCILLATOR UNDER NARROW-BAND EXCITATION

The jump and bifurcation of Duffing oscillator with hardening spring subject to narrow-band random excitation are systematically and comprehensively examined. It is shown that, in a certain domain of the space of the oscillator and excitation parameters, there are two types of more probable motions in the stationary response of the Duffing oscillator and jumps may occur. The jump is a transition of the response from one more probable motion to another or vise versa. Outside the domain the stationary response is either nearly Gaussian or like a diffused limit cycle. As the parameters change across the boundary of the domain the qualitative behavior of the stationary response changes and it is a special kind of bifurcation. It is also shown that, for a set of specified parameters, the statistics are unique and they are independent of initial condition. It is pointed out that some previous results and interpretations on this problem are incorrect.

The restoring force term of the system affects the weak-signal detection ability of the system directly, the quantitative relationship between the coefficients of the linear and nonlinear items of the restoring force of the Duffing oscillator system and the SNR in the detection of weak signals is obtained through a large number of simulation experiments, then a new restoring force function with better detection results is established.

Weak wide-band signal detection method based on small-scale periodic state of Duffing oscillator

The conventional Duffing oscillator weak signal detection method, which is based on a strong reference signal, has inherent deficiencies. To address these issues, the characteristics of the Duffing oscillator＇s phase trajectory in a small- scale periodic state are analyzed by introducing the theory of stopping oscillation system. Based on this approach, a novel Duffing oscillator weak wide-band signal detection method is proposed. In this novel method, the reference signal is discarded, and the to-be-detected signal is directly used as a driving force. By calculating the cosine function of a phase space angle, a single Duffing oscillator can be used for weak wide-band signal detection instead of an array of uncoupled Duffing oscillators. Simulation results indicate that, compared with the conventional Duffing oscillator detection method, this approach performs better in frequency detection intervals, and reduces the signal-to-noise ratio detection threshold, while improving the real-time performance of the system.

A circular zone counting method of identifying a Duffing oscillator state transition and determining the critical value in weak signal detection

Identifying state transition and determining the critical value of the Duffing oscillator are crucial to indicating external signal existence and have a great influence on detection accuracy in weak signal detection. A circular zone counting （CZC） method is proposed in this paper, by combining the Duffing oscillator＇s phase trajectory feature and numerical calculation for quickly and accurately identifying state transition and determining the critical value, to realize a high- efficiency weak signal detection. Detailed model analysis and method construction of the CZC method are introduced. Numerical experiments into the reliability of the proposed CZC method compared with the maximum Lyapunov exponent （MLE） method are carried out. The CZC method is demonstrated to have better detecting ability than the MLE method, and furthermore it is simpler and clearer in calculation to extend to engineering application.

Solving the Optimal Control Problems of Nonlinear Duffing Oscillators By Using an Iterative Shape Functions Method

In the optimal control problem of nonlinear dynamical system,the Hamiltonian formulation is useful and powerful to solve an optimal control force.However,the resulting Euler-Lagrange equations are not easy to solve,when the performance index is complicated,because one may encounter a two-point boundary value problem of nonlinear differential algebraic equations.To be a numerical method,it is hard to exactly preserve all the specified conditions,which might deteriorate the accuracy of numerical solution.With this in mind,we develop a novel algorithm to find the solution of the optimal control problem of nonlinear Duffing oscillator,which can exactly satisfy all the required conditions for the minimality of the performance index.A new idea of shape functions method(SFM)is introduced,from which we can transform the optimal control problems to the initial value problems for the new variables,whose initial values are given arbitrarily,and meanwhile the terminal values are determined iteratively.Numerical examples confirm the high-performance of the iterative algorithms based on the SFM,which are convergence fast,and also provide very accurate solutions.The new algorithm is robust,even large noise is imposed on the input data.

Blind parameter estimation of pseudo-random binary code-linear frequency modulation signal based on Duffing oscillator at low SNR

Conventional parameter estimation methods for pseudo-random binary code-linear frequency modulation(PRBC-LFM)signals require prior knowledge,are computationally complex,and exhibit poor performance at low signal-to-noise ratios(SNRs).To overcome these problems,a blind parameter estimation method based on a Duffing oscillator array is proposed.A new relationship formula among the state of the Duffing oscillator,the pseudo-random sequence of the PRBC-LFM signal,and the frequency difference between the PRBC-LFM signal and the periodic driving force signal of the Duffing oscillator is derived,providing the theoretical basis for blind parameter estimation.Methods based on amplitude method,short-time Fourier transform method,and power spectrum entropy method are used to binarize the output of the Duffing oscillator array,and their performance is compared.The pseudo-random sequence is estimated using Duffing oscillator array synchronization,and the carrier frequency parameters are obtained by the relational expressions and characteristics of the difference frequency.Simulation results show that this blind estimation method overcomes limitations in prior knowledge and maintains good parameter estimation performance up to an SNR of-35 dB.

The chaotic system is sensitive to the initial value,and this property can be applied in the weak signal detection.There are periodic,critical and chaotic states in a chaotic system.When the system is in the critical state,a small perturbation of system parameter may lead to a qualitative change of the system’s state.This paper introduces a new method to detect weak signals by the way of disturbing the damping ratio.The authors choose the duffing equation,using MATLAB to carry on the simulation,to study the changes of the system when the signal to be measured is added to the damping ratio.By means of observing the phase locus chart and time domain chart,the weak signal will be detected.

An open-plus-closed-loop control for chaotic Mathieu-Duffing oscillator

By using the idea of open-plus-closed-loop（OPCL） control, a controller composed of an external excitation and a linear feedback is designed to entrain chaotic trajectories of Mathieu-Duffing oscillator to its periodic and higher periodic orbits. The global basin of entrainment of this open-plus-closed-loop control is proved by combining the Lyapunov stability theory with a comparative theorem of initial value problems for second-order ordinary differential equations. Numerical simulations are performed to verify the theoretical results.

RESPONSE OF PARAMETRICALLY EXCITED DUFFING-VAN DER POL OSCILLATOR WITH DELAYED FEEDBACK

The dynamical behaviour of a parametrically excited Duffing-van der Pol oscillator under linear-plus-nonlinear state feedback control with a time delay is concerned. By means of the method of averaging together with truncation of Taylor expansions, two slow-flow equations on the amplitude and phase of response were derived for the case of principal parametric resonance, it is shown that the stability condition for the trivial solution is only associated with the linear terms in the original systems besides the amplitude and frequency of parametric excitation. And the trivial solution can be stabilized by appreciate choice of gains and time delay in feedback control. Different from the case of the trivial solution, the stability condition for nontrivial solutions is also associated with nonlinear terms besides linear terms in the original system. It is demonstrated that nontrivial steady state responses may lose their stability by saddle-node （SN） or Hopf bifurcation （HB） as parameters vary. The simulations, obtained by numerically integrating the original system, are in good agreement with the analytical results.

Application of the Duffing Chaotic Oscillator Model for Early Fault Diagnosis-Ⅰ. Basic Theory

In this paper, the well-known Duffing equation and the nonlinear equation describing vibration of the human eardrum are introduced from elastic nonlinear system theory. According to the fact that the human ear can distinguish weak sound with small difference, the idea that the Duffing oscillator can be used to detect a weak signal and diagnose early fault of machinery is proposed. In order to obtain a model for weak signal detection via the Duffing oscillator, the first step is to seek all forms of solutions of the Duffing equation. The second step is to study global bifurcations of the Duffing equation using qualitative analysis theory of a dynamic system. That is to say, a series of bifurcations thresholds of the Duffing equation can be analyzed by the Melnikov function and a subharmonics Melnikov function. Then the three types of bifurcations thresholds varying with damping and external exciting amplitude are discussed. The analysis concludes that the bifurcation threshold corresponding to the maximum orbit of solutions outside the homo-clinic orbit of the Duffing equation can be used to detect a weak signal. Finally, the implementing model of the Duffing oscillator for weak signal detection is given.

We develop in this text a probabilistic approach to deterministic nonlinear systems.

Using the characteristics of the Dirac operator, the evolution of the probability density function is obtained for the Duffing oscillator, allowing important aspects of this system to be investigated analytically. A comparison with numerical simulation is carried out in order to validate the results obtained by the analytical approach as well as to verify the nonsymmetric features of the oscillator response.

Nonlinear Control of Chaotic Forced Duffing and Van der Pol Oscillators

This paper discusses a novel technique and implementation to perform nonlinear control for two different forced model state oscillators and actuators. The paper starts by discussing the Duffing oscillator which features a second order non-linear differential equation describing complex motion whereas the second model is the Van der Pol oscillator with non-linear damping. A first order actuator is added to both models to expand on the chaotic behavior of the oscillators. In order to control the system without comprising linearization, Lyapunov non-linear control was used. A control Lyapunov function was tailored to the system. This led to improved maneuverability of the controller and the performance of the overall system. The controller was found to be highly efficient in system tracking and had swift response time. Simulations were performed on both the uncontrolled and controlled cases. Both simulation results ultimately confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed controller.
