Abstract
A communication system having a transmitter chaotic signal generator and a receiver chaotic signal generator which when uncoupled generate state signals along substantially identical chaotic attractor trajectories in an out of phase relation. A controller controls the transmitter chaotic signal generator to transmit a state signal having segments of the deterministic state trajectory which identify a subsequent length of the deterministic state trajectory matching an input N-bit sequence. A receiver coupler receives the transmitted state signal and, if the signal is above a threshold for a duration of approximately two bit periods, synchronizes the receiver chaotic signal generator to the segment of its deterministic state trajectory indicated by the state signal to generate, with or without coupling, the subsequent length of that state trajectory matching the input N-bit sequence. A receiver symbol detector reconstructs the N-bit sequence based on the receiver chaotic oscillator state signal.
