Abstract

In this paper, we numerically investigate phase synchronization between two coupled essentially different chaotic oscillators in drive-response configuration. It is shown that phase synchronization can be observed between two coupled systems despite the difference and the large frequency detuning between them. Moreover, the relation between phase synchronization and generalized synchronization is compared with that in coupled parametrically different systems. In the systems studied, it is found that phase synchronization occurs after generalized synchronization in coupled essentially different chaotic systems.
