Breaking a chaotic secure communication scheme

The chaotic direct sequence spread spectrum (CD3S) has been extensively studied and accepted as an approach of chaotic secure communication. However, we find that CD3S is insecure and present the results of breaking CD3S. A modified unscented-Kalman-filter chaos fitting method is proposed. With the proposed method, an intruder can use a different chaotic system to fit the transmitter's chaotic system and break the CD3S scheme without any knowledge of the chaotic transmitter's structure, parameters or initial value, even under the following conditions: (A) the chaotic spreading sequence is complex and generated by two chaotic maps; (B) there exists noise in the CD3S signal; (C) the CD3S signal is constructed in frames. Simulation results verify the method.     

Secure collaborative cognitive radio based on chaotic modulation and compressive sensing

Cognitive radio (CR) is a wireless technology that is used to overcome the spectrum scarcity problem. CR includes several stages, spectrum sensing is the first stage in the CR cycle. Traditional spectrum sensing (SS) techniques have many challenges in the wideband spectrum. CR security is an important problem, since when an attacker from outside the network access the sensing information this produces an increase in sensing time and reduces the opportunities for exploiting vacant band. Compressive sensing (CS) is proposed to capture all the wideband spectrum at the same time to solve the challenges and improve the performance in the traditional techniques and then one of the traditional SS techniques are applied to the reconstructed signal for detection purpose. The sensing matrix is the core of CS must be designed in a way that produces a low reconstruction error with high compression. There are many types of sensing matrices, the chaotic matrix is the best type in terms of security, memory storage, and system performance. Few works in the literature use the chaotic matrix in CS based CR and these works have many challenges: they used sample distance in the chaotic map to generate a chaotic sequence which consumes high resources, they did not take into consideration the security in reporting channel, and they did not measure their works using real primary user (PU) signal of a practical application under fading channel and low SNR values. In this paper, we propose a chaotic CS based collaborative scenario to solve all challenges that have been presented. We proposed a chaotic matrix based on the Henon map and use the differential chaotic shift keying (DCSK) modulation to transmit the measurement vector through the reporting channel to increase the security and improve the performance under fading channel. The simulation results are tested based on a recorded real-TV signal as PU and Compressive Sampling Matching Pursuit (CoSaMP) recovery algorithm under AWGN and TDL-C fading channels in collaborative and non-collaborative scenarios. The performance of the proposed system has been measured using recovery error, mean square error (MSE), derived probability of detection (Pdrec), and sensitivity to initial values. To measure the improvement introduced by the proposed system, it is evaluated in comparison with selected chaotic and random matrices. The results show that the proposed system provides low recovery error, MSE, with high Pdrec, security, and compression under SNR equal to −30 dB in AWGN and TDL-C fading channels as compared to other matrices in the literature.     

Chaotic direct sequence spread spectrum for secure underwater acoustic communication

Direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) has been widely used in underwater acoustic (UWA) communications. In DSSS communications, spreading sequence’s period and chip rate are important characteristic parameters. However, these characteristic parameters may be detected in hostile environments due to the periodic nature of spreading sequence and their well-known construction process. In this paper, a novel chaotic direct sequence spread spectrum (CD3S) method is proposed for secure UWA communications. In the CD3S communications, chaotic sequences acting as encryption keys are used to encrypt the phases of transmitted signals. Consequently, the application of chaotic sequences disguises these obvious characteristic parameters of spread spectrum (SS) signals. It is difficult for unauthorized users to detect or intercept CD3S signal without knowledge of corresponding chaotic sequences. Hence, CD3S signal has a lower probability of detection and interception. Moreover, CD3S can achieve similar bit error ratio (BER) performance compared with DSSS in actual UWA communications. Also, the receivers that are suitable for DSSS communication can also be applied to CD3S communication. Numerical simulations demonstrate its excellent performance and potential applications in confidential UWA communications.     

Reduction of Bit Error Probability during Parallel Transmission of Information in a MIMO System

We consider cellular communication systems with antenna arrays at both link ends, in which the data transmission is performed via parallel eigenchannels under conditions of a scattering medium. To reduce the bit error probability, we propose a method of information transmission based on the use of only part of the eigenchannels with maximum signal-to-noise ratios and ensuring a tradeoff of the data-transmission rate against the bit-error probability. Eigenchannels are separated into energy-strong and energy-weak channels with the help of the threshold technique. Two possible versions of using the proposed method under conditions of a random multipath spatial channel are studied. The results of numerical simulation in the case of Rayleigh fading of signals confirm the high efficiency of the proposed method of information transmission.     

基于最优滤波器的强混沌背景中谐波信号检测方法研究

强混沌背景中的微弱谐波信号检测有重要的工程研究意义. 目前的检测方法主要是基于Takens理论的混沌相空间重构方法, 然而这些方法往往对信干噪比要求高, 且对高斯白噪声敏感等. 本文注意到混沌信号的二阶统计特性是不变的, 根据这个特点提出了一种基于最优滤波器的强混沌背景中的微弱谐波信号检测方法. 该方法首先构建一个数据矩阵, 在频域上对每个频率通道分别检测谐波信号, 从而将信号检测问题转化为最优化问题, 然后利用最优化理论设计滤波器, 使待检测频率通道的信号增益保持不变, 而尽量抑制其他频率通道的信号, 最后通过判断每一频率通道的输出信干噪比来检测谐波信号. 与传统方法相比, 本文方法有如下优点: 1)可以检测更低信干噪比下的微弱谐波信号; 2)可检测的信号幅度范围更大; 3)抗白噪声性能更强. 仿真结果证明了本文方法的有效性.

On the design of a multi-carrier correlation delay-shift keying system

This paper presents the design of a multi-carrier correlation delay-shift keying (MC-CDSK) system for the operation in wireless environments. In the proposed system, the sum of a chaotic sequence and it delayed version is considered to be a reference sequence and transmitted through a predefined subcarrier. The input data is divided into multiple pairs of bit sub-sequences, where the first and second ones of each pair are spread in the frequency domain by directly multiplying with the chaotic sequence and the delayed version, respectively. The sum of two resulting signals for each pair is then transmitted on a corresponding subcarrier. In the receiving side, the reference sequence retrieved from the predefined subcarrier and the signal retrieved from each of the remaining subcarriers are correlated with the delayed version of the other ones to recover the corresponding bit sub-sequence pair. The recovered pairs are combined to an output data. Schemes for the transmitter and receiver are designed and their operation over a multipath Rayleigh fading channel is described. The system performance is evaluated via theoretical analysis and then verified by numerical simulation. Our findings show that MC-CDSK system can improve communication features, i.e., bit error rate (BER) performance, energy and spectrum efficiency compared to those of the conventional CDSK.
