Abstract: A constant periodic pulse method for controlling chaos which makes the stable segment of the chaotic orbit form a closed orbit by acting periodic pulses on the system variables is proposed on the basis of the finite time Lyapunov exponents. This method is applied to a high dimensional system with two coupled standard maps. In addition to the results obtained in the low dimensional systems, the stabilized periodic orbit whose period is a multiple of the pulse interval is also found. This is one of the characters of the periodic pulse method. This method is robust under the presence of weak external noise.
