The research on the network synchronization from non-time-varying to the time-varying situation is expanded. The problems of parameter identification and outer synchronization of the optical time-varying network are researched. Based on Lyapunov theorem and Lipschitz condition, the self-adaptive laws of feedback strength and coupling matrix elements are obtained. Taking the acoustic-optic hybrid optical bistable chaos system as a simulation example, the correctness of theory analysis is verified by simulation results.
