Abstract

This paper proposes a method to generate several independent periodic attractors, in continuous-time nonchaotic systems (with an equilibrium point or a limit cycle), based on a switching piecewise-constant controller. We demonstrate here that the state space equidistant repartition of these attractors is on a precise zone of a precise curve that depends on the parameters of the system. We determine the state space domains where the attractors are generated from different initial conditions. A mathematical formula giving their maximal number in function of the controller piecewise-constant values is then deduced. Throughout this study, the proposed methodology is illustrated with several examples.
