Transmission system using chaotic delays between lightwaves

We report a chaos-based transmission system that uses optical path differences between wavegroups produced by a short coherence source. Chaos synchronization is demonstrated in delay-differential equations involving optical delays larger than the coherence length of the source. The particular feature is all-optical chaos subtraction for message extraction and a very high masking efficiency.
