Optical communication with chaotic lasers: applications of nonlinear dynamics and synchronization

Starting with an introduction to the fundamental physics in chaotic instabilities and noise effect in laser systems, this comprehensive and unified reference goes on to present the techniques and technology of synchronization of chaos in coupled lasers, as well as the many applications to lasers and optics, communications, security and information technology. Throughout, it presents thecurrent state of knowledge, including encoding/decoding techniques, performance of chaotic communication systems, and novel communication technologies.
