An Algorithm for Computing the Largest Lyapunov Exponent Based on Space Grid Method
The largest Lyapunov exponent is an essential criterion to judge whether the time series is chaos or not.However
the traditional methods are complex and time-consuing
which leads to the limitations in engineering application.An improved algorithm based on space grid method for estimating the largest Lyapunov exponent is presented.Firstly
the whole reconstructed phase space is divided into small spaces;then the points locating in these subspaces which are searched when the reference point exists;finally
the characteristic exponent is calculated.Simulation results show that neighborhoods are searched effectively
and the whole calculated time is reduced greatly.In practically
the algorithm is robust to reconstructed parameters
noise and data length
and it is easy to be programmed as well
which make exponents computed of chaos online possible.
