ABSTRACT
This paper investigates the problem of the exponential cluster synchronization of coupled impulsive genetic oscillators with external disturbances and communication delay. Based on the Kronecker product, some new cluster synchronization criteria for coupled impulsive genetic oscillators with attenuation level are derived. The derived results are related to the impulsive strength, and the derived results also indicate that the maximal allowable bound of time delay is inversely proportional to the decay rate, the decay rate is proportional to the couple strength, the maximal allowable bound of time delay is proportional to attenuation level, and the attenuation level is inversely proportional to the couple strength. Moreover, the case when the feedback have different self-delay is also investigated. Finally, numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the derived results.
