In this paper, the Adomian decomposition method (ADM) is applied to solve the fractional-order simplified unified system. The dynamics of the system is analyzed by means of the Lyapunov exponent spectrum, bifurcations, chaotic attractor, power spectrum and maximum Lyapunov exponent diagram. Route to chaos by period doubling is observed. Chaos is found to exist in the system with order as low as 1.371. In addition, chaotic behaviors are studied with different dimensional order, and the results show that this system is chaotic when only the first or third dimension is fractional.
