Abstract:
We present a so-called zero-crossing identification method that can crack the security shell of the chaotic encryption method Chaos, Solitons & Fractals 19 (2004) 919] with periodic modulation. By collecting a special set of truncated data from the zero-crossing incidents of the modulated signal, we can detect the modulating function from chaotic signal. Furthermore we extend the technique to extract modulating function from noise and discuss the potential applications of this method in engineering.
