An Optically Coupled Electro-Optic Chaos System With Suppressed Time-Delay Signature

We present an optically coupled chaotic system involving three-phase modulated electro-optic nonlinear loops and an optical coupler. The dynamical properties and the time delay signature (TDS) suppressing performance of the system is analyzed in detail. Numerical results show that the TDS can be suppressed not only under statistical analysis of a single output, but also under mutual statistical analysis of the multiple outputs. Compared with the intensity modulated electrically coupled scheme, the presented system has less interior noise due to the simpler construction.
