Memristor based chaotic oscillators exhibit complex dynamics. They are often chosen for secure communication owing to their interesting feature. In chaos-based secure communication applications using the master-slave configuration, synchronization is a central issue. Most of the synchronization methods proposed in the literature are asymptotic. In practice, it is desirable that synchronization be established in a predefined time. This invention provides new developments in the design of high-gain observers with an unknown input dedicated for predefined-time synchronization of memristor based chaotic systems. The proposed predefined-time extended high gain observer is constructed on the basis of a time-dependent coordinates transformation based on modulating functions that annihilate the effect of initial conditions on the synchronization time. Both noise-free channel and noisy channel are considered. Simulations performed on a numerical example illustrated the efficiency of proposed approaches.
