Chaotic signals have been used and can be generated by a chaotic circuit for controlling trajectories of mobile robots. Application of chaotically robotic systems may be employed for cleaning and patrolling tasks, when information of areas at work is not available. This paper presents an investigation on the trajectory of chaotic guiding signals generated by Chua's attractor and Arnold's nonattractor in five given situations. According to the simulation, with best adjusting parameters for both signals, the trajectory generated from Chua's pattern has covered more areas than that of Arnold's counterpart for all testing cases.
