A novel chaotic system with suppressed time-delay signature based on multiple electro-optic nonlinear loops

We present a novel time-delay chaotic system by adopting multiple electro-optic nonlinear loops. The dynamic characteristics of the proposed chaotic system are investigated by means of the bifurcation diagram and the permutation entropy. The security performance of the system is analyzed in detail by using autocorrelation function, delayed mutual information, and the permutation information approach. The simulation results show that the time-delay signature is suppressed under certain simple conditions. Moreover, a synchronization scheme on basis of the proposed system is analyzed. Both the security and the feasibility are verified. The proposed chaotic system can be used in secure communications and also has potential applications in random number generation or chaos computing.
