Output Synchronization of Complex Dynamical Networks With Multiple Output or Output Derivative Couplings

In this paper, the output synchronization problem for complex dynamical networks (CDNs) with multiple output or output derivative couplings is discussed in detail. Under the help of Lyapunov functional and inequality techniques, an output synchronization criterion is presented for CDNs with multiple output couplings (CDNMOCs). To ensure the output synchronization of CDNMOCs, an adaptive control scheme is also devised. Similarly, we also take into account the adaptive output synchronization and output synchronization of CDNs with multiple output derivative couplings. At last, several numerical examples are designed to testify the effectiveness of the proposed results.
