Secure communication with chaos and electronic circuit design using passivity-based synchronization

Abstract

This work deals with the passive control-based chaos synchronization with circuit design for secure communication. First, the numerical simulation and electronic circuit design of a simple five-term chaotic system are performed. The numerical simulation and electronic circuit design outputs have con firmed each other. Then, the passive control method is applied for synchronizing two identical five-term chaotic systems using only one state control signal. After the synchronization study, design and analysis for secure communication by chaotic masking method are conducted in Matlab-Simulink platform. Finally, an electronic circuit design is performed for the designed communication system. In the designed communication system with Matlab-Simulink platform and electronic circuit design, information signal which is sent from the transmitter unit is successfully retrieved at the receiver unit. As a result, the electronic circuit design has shown that a single state passivity-based synchronization signal can be effectively used for secure data communication applications for the real environment.
