Investigation of Chaotic Behavior in Clapp Oscillator

Ivana Vasiljević, Nikola Petrović, Aleksandra Lekić

In this paper we investigate the chaotic behavior of the class of oscillators denoted as Clapp oscillators. Clapp oscillator is a simple oscillator containing one transistor and a few reactive elements - inductors and capacitors. This oscilllator is chosen for its design simplicity and a good performance. Oscillator with chaotic behavior can be used to construct chaotic radar. For that matter, in this paper is investigated approach for construction of the chaotic Clapp oscillator, which can be further verified experimentally using microstrip technology.

Controlling the Ćuk Converter using Piecewise Linear Lyapunov Functions

Aleksandra Lekić, Nikola Petrović, Dušan Stipanović

In this paper we design a switching control law for the Ćuk converter in the continuous conduction mode using piecewise linear Lyapunov functions. These Lyapunov functions can be constructed using different number of state variables affecting the system's performance. In the paper, some representative simulations covering construction of different piecewise Lyapunov functions, are provided.
