Method and apparatus for signal generation and detection using unstable periodic chaotic orbits

摘要

A signal generator and signal receiver, as well as method of signal generation and transmission, in which selected unstable periodic orbits of a lossy chaotic system are identified and extracted, and portions of the orbits concatenated together to form a resultant signal. The selected orbits are known to the signal detector a priori. The signal detector detects the transmitted signal by correlation of the received signal with the known extracted orbits, also allowing the detector identify information which the generator imposed onto the signal.
