Decoding information by following parameter modulation with parameter adaptive control

It has been proposed to realize secure communication using chaotic synchronization via transmission of a binary message encoded by parameter modulation in the chaotic system. This paper considers the use of parameter adaptive control techniques to extract the message, based on the assumptions that we know the equation form of the chaotic system in the transmitter but do not have access to the precise values of the parameters which are kept secret as a secure set. In the case in which a synchronizing system can be constructed using parameter adaptive control by the transmitted signal and the synchronization is robust to parameter mismatches, the parameter modulation can be revealed and the message decoded without resorting to exact parameter values in the secure set. A practical local Lyapunov function method for designing parameter adaptive control rules based on originally synchronized systems is presented.

Constructing a one-way hash function based on the unified chaotic system

A new one-way hash function based on the unified chaotic system is constructed. With different values of a key parameter, the unified chaotic system represents different chaotic systems, based on which the one-way hash function algorithm is constructed with three round operations and an initial vector on an input message. In each round operation, the parameters are processed by three different chaotic systems generated from the unified chaotic system. Feed-forwards are used at the end of each round operation and at the end of each element of the message processing. Meanwhile, in each round operation, parameter-exchanging operations are implemented. Then, the hash value of length 160 bits is obtained from the last six parameters. Simulation and analysis both demonstrate that the algorithm has great flexibility, satisfactory hash performance, weak collision property, and high security.     

Adaptive synchronization of a switching system and its applications to secure communications

This paper studies the adaptive synchronization of a switching system with unknown parameters which switches between the R?ssler system and a unified chaotic system. Using the Lyapunov stability theory and adaptive control method, the receiver system will achieve synchronization with the drive system and the unknown parameters would be estimated by the receiver. Then the proposed switching system is used for secure communications based on the communication schemes including chaotic masking, chaotic modulation, and chaotic shift key strategies. Since the system switches between two chaotic systems and the parameters are almost unknown, it is more difficult for the intruder to extract the useful message from the transmission channel. In addition, two new schemes in which the chaotic signal used to mask (or modulate) the transmitted signal switches between two components of a chaotic system are also presented. Finally, some simulation results are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed communication schemes.     

Communication with chemical chaos in the presence of noise

We use control of chaos to encode information into the oscillations of the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction. An arbitrary binary message is encoded by forcing the chaotic oscillations to follow a specified trajectory. The information manipulating control requires only small perturbations to vary the binary message. In this paper we extend our recent theoretical work [Bollt and Dolnik, Phys. Rev. E 64, 1196 (1990)] by introducing a new and simplified encoding technique which can be utilized in the presence of experimental noise. We numerically and theoretically study several practical aspects of controlling symbol dynamics including: modeling noisy time-series, learning underlying symbol dynamics, and evaluation of derivatives for control by observing system responses to an intelligent and deliberate sequence of input parameter variations. All of the modeling techniques incorporated here are ultimately designed to learn and control symbol dynamics of experimental data known only as an observed time-series; the simulation assumes no global model. We find that noise affects reliability of encoding information and may cause coding errors. But, if the level of noise is confined to relatively small values, which are achievable in experiments, the control mechanism is robust to the noise. Thus we can still produce a desired symbolic code. However, scarce errors in encoding may occur due to rare but large fluctuations. These errors may be corrected during the decoding process by a variation of the filtering technique suggested by Rosa et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 78, 1247 (1997)].

Communicating with noise: How chaos and noise combine to generate secure encryption keys

An approach for the secure transmission of encrypted messages using chaos and noise is presented in this paper. The method is based on the synchronization of certain types of chaotic oscillators in response to a common noise input. This allows two distant oscillators to generate identical output which can be used as a key for encryption and decryption of a message signal. The noiselike synchronizing input-which contains no message information-is communicated to identical oscillators in the transmitter and the receiver over a public channel. The encrypted message is also sent over a public channel, while the key is never transmitted at all. The chaotic nature of the oscillators which generate the key and the randomness of the signal driving the process combine to make the recovery of the key by an eavesdropper extremely difficult. We evaluate system performance with respect to security and robustness and show that a robust and secure system can be obtained. (c) 1998 American Institute of Physics.     

Identifying parameter by identical synchronization between different systems

In this paper, parameters of a given (chaotic) dynamical system are estimated from time series by using identical synchronization between two different systems. This technique is based on the invariance principle of differential equations, i.e., a dynamical Lyapunov function involving synchronization error and the estimation error of parameters. The control used in this synchronization consists of feedback and adaptive control loop associated with the update law of estimation parameters. Our estimation process indicates that one may identify dynamically all unknown parameters of a given (chaotic) system as long as time series of the system are available. Lorenz and Rossler systems are used to illustrate the validity of this technique. The corresponding numerical results and analysis on the effect of noise are also given.

A chaotic masking scheme by using synchronized chaotic systems

We present a new chaotic masking scheme by using synchronized chaotic systems. In this method, synchronization and message transmission phases are separated, and while synchronization is achieved in the synchronization phases, the message is only sent in message transmission phases. We show that if synchronization is achieved exponentially fast, then under certain conditions any message of any length could be transmitted and successfully recovered provided that the synchronization length is sufficiently long. We also show that the proposed scheme is robust with respect to noise and parameter mismatch under some mild conditions.     

Lightweight secure image encryption scheme based on chaotic differential equation

The ultimate secure choice for block cryptosystem until now is advanced encryption standard (AES). It is very difficult to implement AES for the constrained situations such as sensor networks, image encryption and RFID tags. In this article, a chaotic oscillator generated by a second order differential equation is used to produce confusion and diffusion in the plaintext message to achieve the desired secrecy. The produced chaotic sequence of random numbers from dynamical system is utilized to scramble the pixels of an image to obtain an encrypted image. Chaos based encryption technique is found secure enough to tackle chosen plaintext attacks and brute force attacks. The specific attributes of chaotic system like, sensitivity to initial conditions, randomness and uncertainty make it suitable for the design of cryptosystem. The dominance of the proposed scheme is acknowledged due to the fact of better cryptographic properties when compared with the algorithms already developed in the literature.     

Integrity of semiconductor laser chaotic communications to naïve eavesdroppers

The integrity of a chaotic encoding technique based on an external-cavity semiconductor laser transmitter-receiver system is experimentally examined. A semiconductor laser placed in the transmission path of the system is used to represent an eavesdropper intercepting a chaotic communication. The eavesdropper is able to obtain a copy of the transmission but is unable to decode the message. A chaotic communication system based on external-cavity semiconductor lasers is seen therefore to be secure against this form of interception.     

Exploiting the natural redundancy of chaotic signals in communication systems

Chaotic signals can be used as carriers of information in communication systems. In this work we describe a simple encoding method that allows one to map any desired bit sequence into a chaotic waveform. The redundancy of the resulting information carrying signal enables us to devise a novel signal reconstruction technique that is able to recover relatively large parts of the chaotic signal starting from just a few samples of it. We show that this technique allows one to increase both the transmission reliability and the transmission rate of a communication system even in the presence of noise.     

Adaptive complete synchronization of two identical or different chaotic (hyperchaotic) systems with fully unknown parameters

This paper studies the adaptive complete synchronization of chaotic and hyperchaotic systems with fully unknown parameters. In practical situations, some systems' parameters cannot be exactly known a priori, and the uncertainties often affect the stability of the process of synchronization of the chaotic oscillators. An adaptive scheme is proposed to compensate for the effects of parameters' uncertainty based on the structure of chaotic systems in this paper. Based on the Lyapunov stability theorem, an adaptive controller and a parameters update law can be designed for the synchronization of chaotic and hyperchaotic systems. The drive and response systems can be nonidentical, even with different order. Three illustrative examples are given to demonstrate the validity of this technique, and numerical simulations are also given to show the effectiveness of the proposed chaos synchronization method. In addition, this synchronization scheme is quite robust against the effect of noise.

Asymmetric multiple-image encryption based on coupled logistic maps in fractional Fourier transform domain

A multiple-image encryption scheme is proposed based on the asymmetric technique, in which the encryption keys are not identical to the decryption ones. First, each plain image is scrambled based on a sequence of chaotic pairs generated with a system of two symmetrically coupled identical logistic maps. Then, the phase-only function of each scrambled image is retrieved with an iterative phase retrieval process in the fractional Fourier transform domain. Second, all phase-only functions are modulated into an interim, which is encrypted into the ciphertext with stationary white noise distribution by using the fractional Fourier transform and chaotic diffusion. In the encryption process, three random phase functions are used as encryption keys to retrieve the phase-only functions of plain images. Simultaneously, three decryption keys are generated in the encryption process, which make the proposed encryption scheme has high security against various attacks, such as chosen plaintext attack. The peak signal-to-noise is used to evaluate the quality of the decrypted image, which shows that the encryption capacity of the proposed scheme is enhanced considerably. Numerical simulations demonstrate the validity and efficiency of the proposed method.
