Description
Summary:This paper studies a topology identification problem of complex networks with dynamics on different time scales. Using the adaptive synchronization method, some criteria for a successful estimation are obtained. In particular, by regulating the original network to synchronize with an auxiliary chaotic network, this work further explores a way to avoid the precondition of linear independence. When the adaptive controller fails to achieve the outer synchronization, an impulsive control method is used. In the end, we conclude with three numerical simulations. The results obtained in this paper generalize continuous, discrete with arbitrary time step size and mixed cases.
