A New Chaotic System With Two Stable Node-Foci Equilibria and an Unstable Saddle-Focus Equilibrium: Bifurcation and Multistability Analysis, Circuit Design, Voice Cryptosystem Application, and FPGA Implementation

In the recent years, significant research interest has been devoted in the modelling and applications of chaotic systems with stable equilibria. In this research study, we propose a new 3-D chaotic system with two stable node-foci equilibria and an unstable saddle-focus equilibrium. We conduct a detailed bifurcation analysis for the new chaotic system with the aid of bifurcation diagrams and Lyapunov exponents. We also show that the new chaotic system has multistability with coexisting attractors. Using MultiSim version 14.1, we design an electronic circuit for the proposed 3-D chaotic system. Finally, as an application, we introduce a voice cryptosystem using the new chaotic system with two stable node-foci equilibrium points and an unstable saddle-focus equilibrium point and its hardware realization on the FPGA platform.
