A fractal modulation technique for digital communications systems

This paper addresses a method of fractal modulation for digital communications systems. The method has been developed for use in cases when a bit stream needs to be 'hidden' in transmission noise and can be used in addition to, or in place of a spread spectrum. This is achieved by embedding the information in data whose properties and characteristics resemble those of the background noise of a transmission system. The method is based on a random scaling fractal model.
