Experimental confirmation of chaotic phase synchronization in coupled time-delayed electronic circuits

We report the experimental demonstration of chaotic phase synchronization (CPS) in unidirectionally coupled time-delay systems using electronic circuits. We have also implemented experimentally an efficient methodology for characterizing CPS, namely, the localized sets. Snapshots of the evolution of coupled systems and the sets as observed from the oscilloscope confirming CPS are shown experimentally. Numerical results from different approaches, namely, phase differences, localized sets, changes in the largest Lyapunov exponents, and the correlation of probability of recurrence (CCPR) corroborate the experimental observations
