Sinusoidal oscillator parametrically forced to robust hyperchaotic states: the lumpkin case

The objective of this paper is to showcase the capability of the conventional circuit structure known as the Lumpkin oscillator, widely employed in practical applications, to operate in robust chaotic or hyperchaotic steady states. Through numerical analysis, we demonstrate that the generated signals exhibit a significant level of unpredictability and randomness, as evidenced by positive Lyapunov exponents, approximate entropy, recurrence plots, and other indicators of complex dynamics. We establish the structural stability of strange attractors through design and practical construction of a flow-equivalent fourth-order chaotic oscillator, followed by experimental measurements. The oscilloscope screenshots captured align well with the plane projections of the approximate solutions derived from the underlying mathematical models.
