- Abstract
The principal design objective of this paper is to facilitate extremely secure digital communication using chaotic shift
keying in existing frequency-hop spread spectrum systems. Generally in chaotic shift keying, the incoming digital bit
stream is mapped onto one of the available chaotic signals. Our scheme proposes the use of antipodal chaotic signals,
which means they are signals which are out of phase with each other by 180°. Data bits 0 and 1 can be mapped onto
either of the antipodal signals using required convention. Also, in FH-spread spectrum (FH-SS) techniques, there
exists a p-n code generator based on the output of which the frequency synthesizer selects a particular carrier
frequency. Usual FH-SS systems use MFSK modulation in the stage following the frequency hopper. As our case
involves the use of chaotic reference signals and their basic shapes need to be preserved throughout, we propose the
use of binary frequency shift keying. The digital data, which is now in the form of chaotic signals, is turned into a BFSK
signal. This resultant signal is mixed with a carrier frequency at the frequency synthesizer. This carrier is chosen by the
frequency hopper, whose output, in turn depends on the output of a p-n sequence. e assume the transmission
channel to contribute additive white noise. At the receiver, we propose to perform FSK demodulation as a first stage
recovery to get back the chaotic signal. Now this recovered signal is either an exact copy of the chaotic reference
signal or its inverse. To decide which of the two was sent by the transmitter, we can use a correlator receiver, which
uses a locally generated chaotic reference signal.
