    摘要: A system for synchronizing chaotic transmitters and receivers that is less sensitive to channel effects than other known chaotic communication methods. The system employs duplicate transmitter and receiving modules and in addition to the chaotic output a synchronizing signal which occupies a reduced bandwidth. The small bandwidth affords the system a greater resistance to the affects of frequency dependent channel distortion and noise. The broad band chaotic signal is transmitted and appears to be noise to an unauthorized listener. The receiving unit employs band pass filtering, and when the signal is received the receiver filters the chaotic signal through band pass filters which eliminate channel noise and make gain control easier to implement.

    摘要: A control system for tracking the operation of a nonlinear system has two parts: a tracking subsystem and a controlling subsystem. The tracking subsystem generates a parametric signal and the controlling subsystem controls and stabilizes the nonlinear system operating under operating conditions corresponding to that parametric signal. The controlling subsystem includes a modulator responsive to the parametric signal and to a feedback signal for producing and applying an input signal to the nonlinear system to cause the nonlinear system to produce an output signal. The controlling subsystem also includes means responsive to the output signal for producing the feedback signal. The controlling subsystem also includes correcting means, operable when the time average of the feedback signal is substantially nonzero, for bringing the time average of the feedback signal from a substantially nonzero value to a substantially zero value, and maintaining means, operable when the time average of the feedback signal is substantially zero, for maintaining the time average of the feedback signal over the selected period of time at a substantially zero value.

    摘要: A system and method is provided for estimating a trajectory of an incoming bullet based on the acoustics of the shock wave created as the bullet travels through the air. A first auditory signal representing a direct sound from the shock wave is recorded and its azimuthal direction is determined. Based on this azimuthal direction and other assumptions two possible bullet directions that can cause that shock wave are estimated. A second auditory signal representing a reflection of the shock wave as it travels through the air also is recorded and its azimuthal direction determined. The azimuthal direction of the ground reflection will lie between the azimuthal direction of the first auditory signal and the more correct of the two estimated trajectories, and thus can resolve the ambiguity in the estimated direction of the bullet source.

    摘要: A controller is provided for driving at least two systems in synchronization with one another. The controller provides a pseudoperiodic drive to drive the two systems at a desired frequency and to ensure that the two systems are synchronized. The pseudoperiodic drive can be produced by combining a periodic drive with a chaotic drive, noise drive or an incommensurate frequency drive. Any of these types of drives can be combined with the periodic drive by adding to or modulating the periodic drive. Thus, the controller can drive the two systems in phase with one another by using the same pseudoperiodic drive.

    摘要: The low-interference communications device uses chaotic signals which are almost periodic. A chaotic circuit driven by a sine wave signal from a function generator is produced which has narrow-band features in the power spectrum. An information signal is encoded on the chaotic signal by modulating the phase of the sine wave that drives the chaotic circuit. Periodic (narrow-band) components are then removed from the chaotic signal and the chaotic signal is transmitted to a receiver device. The chaotic signal is nonlinear, so the narrow band and broad band parts of the chaotic signal have been modulated together. The transmitted signal is relatively flat, so it will not interfere with other communications signals. At the receiver, the nonlinear chaotic signal is restored by performing a nonlinear operation on the received signal, such as squaring or cubing, to remove the narrowband components. Then the information modulated onto the narrow band component is detected. When this is accomplished it is possible to detect variations in the phase of the base frequency.

    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.

    摘要: A filtered cascaded synchronized nonlinear system includes a nonlinear transmitter having stable first and second subsystems. The first subsystem produces a first transmitter signal for driving the second subsystem, and the second subsystem produces a second transmitter signal for driving the first subsystem. A first filter filters the second transmitter signal to produce a filter output signal. A subtractor subtracts the filter output signal from the second transmitter signal to produce a transmitter output signal which is transmitted to a nonlinear cascaded receiver. The receiver includes an adder for summing the received transmitter output signal with a receiver filter output signal to restore frequencies that were subtracted from the second transmitter signal in order to produce a first receiver drive signal. The receiver includes cascaded third and fourth subsystems that are respective duplicates of the first and second subsystems. The third subsystem is driven by the first receiver drive signal to produce a first receiver signal in synchronization with the first transmitter signal. The fourth subsystem is driven by the first receiver signal to produce a second receiver signal in synchronization with the second transmitter signal. A second filter filters the second receiver signal to produce the receiver filter output signal.

    摘要: A cascaded synchronized nonlinear system includes a nonlinear transmitter having stable first and second subparts. The first subpart produces a first transmitter signal for driving the second subpart and the second subpart produces a second transmitter signal for driving the first subpart. The nonlinear transmitter transmits the second transmitter signal to a nonlinear cascaded receiver. The receiver, being for producing an output signal in synchronization with the second transmitter signal, includes a first stage (a duplicate of the first subpart) responsive to the second transmitter signal for producing a first receiver signal. The receiver further includes a second stage (a duplicate of the second subpart) responsive to the first receiver signal for producing the output signal. The cascaded synchronized nonlinear system can be used in an information transfer system. The transmitter, responsive to an information signal produces a drive signal for transmission to the receiver. An error detector compares the drive signal and the output signal produced by the receiver to produce an error signal indicative of the information contained in the information signal.
