Specific embodiments

[0036] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, where the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0037] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , in a first aspect, the present invention provides a secure communication system based on receiving chaotic synchronization test and adjustment, including a transmitting end 1, a transmission link 2, and a receiving end 3, where the transmitting end 1, the transmission link 2, and the receiving end 3 are connected in sequence;

[0038] The transmitting end 1 is used to superimpose the plaintext information to be transmitted with the chaotic signal modulated by the system for signal mixing encryption;

[0039] The transmission link 2 is used to securely transmit the ciphertext signal superimposed with the chaotic carrier to the receiving end 3;

[0040] The receiving end 3 is used to quickly obtain a chaotic signal synchronized with the transmitting end 1, and then restore the original plaintext information through differential demodulation.

[0041] In this embodiment, the transmitter 1 is configured to superimpose the plaintext information to be transmitted with the chaotic signal modulated by the system for signal mixing encryption; the transmission link 2 is configured to securely transmit the ciphertext signal superimposed with the chaotic carrier to the receiver 3; the receiver 3 is configured to quickly obtain the chaotic signal synchronized with the transmitter 1, and then restore the original plaintext information through differential demodulation. The chaotic mixing superimposed signal output by the transmitter 1 of the present invention is evenly divided into two paths for transmission through the power splitter unit 31. One path passes through the open-loop chaotic structure of the receiver 3 to generate a chaotic synchronization signal, and the other path serves as the ciphertext signal. This makes it easy for the transmitter and receiver to achieve chaotic synchronization and avoids transmitting the chaotic synchronization signal in the public transmission link 2, fundamentally ensuring the confidentiality of the system. The receiver 3 adjusts the length of the optical fiber delay line 122 through the delay test unit 34 and the feedback unit 35 so that the relative delay of the two signals output by the power splitter unit 31 is 0, thereby quickly obtaining the chaotic signal synchronized with the transmitter 1. This solves the problems of difficult chaotic synchronization between the transmitter and receiver and poor transmission security performance existing in the existing chaotic secure communication system.

[0042] Further, the transmitter 1 includes a laser source unit 11, a chaotic modulation unit 12, a service unit 13, and a mixing and superimposing unit 14. The output port of the laser source unit 11 is connected to the input port of the chaotic modulation unit 12, and the output ports of the chaotic modulation unit 12 and the service unit 13 are both connected to the input port of the mixing and superimposing unit 14;

[0043] The laser source unit 11 is configured to output laser to the chaotic modulation unit 12;

[0044] The chaotic modulation unit 12 is configured to generate a chaotic signal with complex dynamic characteristics;

[0045] The service unit 13 is configured to handle the plaintext information to be transmitted;

[0046] The mixing and superimposing unit 14 superimposes the modulated chaotic signal with the plaintext information to obtain an encrypted signal of chaotic carrier mixing and superimposing.

[0047] In this embodiment, the laser source unit 11 outputs laser, and the chaotic modulation unit 12 introduces a non-linear interaction to the optical signal output by the laser source to generate a chaotic signal with complex dynamic behavior, and superimposes it with the service signal to be transmitted, obtaining an encrypted chaotic carrier mixing and superimposing signal, achieving the purpose of encrypting the service signal to prevent eavesdropping, attacks and other behaviors from obtaining service information during the transmission process.

[0048] Further, the chaotic modulation unit 12 includes a modulator 121, an optical fiber delay line 122, a photodetector 123, and a radio frequency amplifier 124;

[0049] The modulator 121 is used to induce the generation of chaotic oscillations;

[0050] The optical fiber delay line 122 is used to generate complex dynamic behaviors and increase the chaotic dimension;

[0051] The photodetector 123 is used for photoelectric conversion;

[0052] The radio frequency amplifier 124 is used to enhance the level of the electrical signal and then drive the modulator, so that the modulator exhibits non-linearity under the condition of a large driving voltage.

[0053] In this embodiment, the light output by the laser source is transmitted to the optical input port of the Mach-Zehnder modulator 121 through an optical fiber connecting line. The optical output port of the Mach-Zehnder modulator 121 is connected to one end of the optical fiber delay line 122, and the other end of the optical fiber delay line 122 is connected to the input port of the photodetector 123. The output port P of the photodetector 123 is connected to the input port of the radio frequency amplifier 124 through a radio frequency line, and the output port of the radio frequency amplifier 124 is connected to the radio frequency input port of the Mach-Zehnder modulator 121 through a radio frequency line, thus forming a closed-loop structure for generating chaotic signals. The other output port N of the photodetector 123 is transmitted to the input end of the mixing and superposition unit 14 through a radio frequency line together with the service information for superposition, and the output end of the mixing and superposition unit 14 is connected to the signal transmission link 2.

[0054] Furthermore, the receiving end 3 includes a power splitter unit 31, a chaotic synchronization unit 32, a signal demodulation unit 33, a delay test unit 34, and a feedback unit 35. On the one hand, when the signal is transmitted confidentially, one output port of the power splitter unit 31 is connected to the chaotic synchronization unit 32 and the signal demodulation unit 33, and the other output port is directly connected to the signal demodulation unit 33. On the other hand, when the system delay is tested, the output port of the delay test unit 34 is connected to the input port of the power splitter unit 31 and is connected to the feedback unit 35. The feedback unit 35 is connected to the chaotic synchronization unit 32, and the input port of the delay test unit 34 is connected to the output ports of the chaotic synchronization unit 32 and the power splitter unit 31;

[0055] The power splitter unit 31 is used to equally divide the encrypted signal into two paths for parallel transmission;

[0056] The chaotic synchronization unit 32 is used to generate a chaotic signal synchronized with the sending end 1;

[0057] The signal demodulation unit 33 is used to perform differential demodulation on the ciphertext information transmitted by the sending end 1 and the synchronous chaotic signal of the receiving end 3 to recover the service information;

[0058] The delay test unit 34 is configured to test the relative delay of the two signals output by the power splitter unit 31 to the demodulation unit;

[0059] The feedback unit 35 adjusts the length of the optical fiber delay line 122 according to the delay test result.

[0060] In this embodiment, first, the output port of the delay test unit 34 is connected to the input port of the power splitter unit 31. The power splitter unit 31 outputs two signals. One of the signals enters the chaotic synchronization unit 32 and then returns to the signal input end of the delay test unit 34, and the other signal directly returns to the signal input end of the delay test unit 34. In this way, the delay time of the two signals can be measured, and the length of the optical fiber delay line 122 is adjusted in real time through the feedback control unit to make the relative delay of the two signals zero. Then, the input port of the power splitter unit 31 is connected to the transmission link 2. The power splitter unit 31 outputs two ciphertext signals. One of the signals obtains a chaotic signal synchronized with the sending end 1 through the chaotic synchronization unit 32, and then reaches the signal demodulation unit 33 through a radio frequency line. At this time, the other signal output by the power splitter unit 31 also reaches the signal demodulation unit 33 through a radio frequency line. The two signals recover the original service information of the sending end 1 through differential demodulation.

[0061] Please refer to Figure 4 , in a second aspect, a secure communication method based on receiving chaotic synchronization test adjustment, which is used for the secure communication system based on receiving chaotic synchronization test adjustment described in the first aspect, includes the following steps:

[0062] S1 The sending end 1 mixes and superimposes the service information to be transmitted with the chaotic signal to encrypt and protect the plaintext information;

[0063] Specifically, the output light source of the laser is connected to the optical input end of the Mach-Zehnder modulator 121 through an optical fiber connection line. The laser provides a light source for generating chaotic signals. By adjusting the bias voltage of the Mach-Zehnder modulator 121, a suitable operating point can be found. An appropriate bias voltage can make the Mach-Zehnder modulator 121 operate in the nonlinear region, making it easier to generate complex dynamic behaviors and providing a basis for the formation of a chaotic system. The optical output port of the Mach-Zehnder modulator 121 is connected to one end of the optical fiber delay line 122. The chaotic dimension can be effectively increased by adjusting the length of the optical fiber delay line 122, thereby enhancing the complexity of the chaotic behavior and making the dynamic characteristics of the system more difficult to predict and analyze. The other end of the optical fiber delay line 122 is connected to the input port of the photodetector 123 for optoelectronic conversion. The output electrical signal of the photodetector 123 is transmitted to the input port of the radio frequency amplifier 124 through a radio frequency line via port P. The output port of the radio frequency amplifier 124 is connected to the radio frequency input end of the Mach-Zehnder modulator 121 through a radio frequency line. By adjusting the gain of the radio frequency amplifier 124, the signal strength and the stability of the system can be enhanced. An appropriate gain setting can effectively control the chaotic state and prevent the system from entering an unstable or out-of-control state. At this time, a closed-loop structure is formed. When the output light of the laser passes through the Mach-Zehnder modulator 121, the nonlinear feedback mechanism adjusts the system parameters according to the intensity or phase of the optical signal, thereby inducing the generation of chaotic oscillations. The chaotic signal output from the other output port N of the photodetector 123 is superimposed on the service information to form a chaotic carrier mixing and superimposing signal, thereby completing the encryption of the service information.

[0064] The transmission link 2 of S2 securely transmits the chaotically encrypted information to the receiving end 3;

[0065] Specifically, the transmission link 2 carries the chaotic carrier mixing signal composed of the superposition of the chaotic signal and the service signal at the sending end 1 and transmits it to the receiving end 3 through a radio frequency line.

[0066] The receiving end 3 of S3 performs a delay test on the system and feedback adjusts to quickly obtain a chaotic synchronization signal, and then performs differential demodulation with the encrypted signal to recover the service information transmitted by the sending end 1.

[0067] Specifically, first, the output signal of the delay test unit 34 is equally divided into two paths by the power splitter unit 31. One path of the signal returns to the delay test unit 34 through the chaotic synchronization unit 32, and the other path of the signal directly returns to the delay test unit 34. Thus, the relative delay between the two paths of signals is measured, and the length of the optical fiber delay line 122 is adjusted in real time by the feedback control unit to make the relative delay zero. Then, the transmission link 2 is connected to the input end of the power splitter unit 31, and the power splitter unit 31 outputs two encrypted signals. One of the encrypted signals is filtered out the service information by the chaotic synchronization unit 32 to obtain a chaotic synchronization signal, and then the chaotic synchronization signal is differentially demodulated with the other encrypted signal to restore the original service information of the sending end 1.

[0068] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0069] (1) The chaotic mixing and superposition signal output by the sending end of the present invention is equally divided into two paths for transmission by the power splitter. One path passes through the open-loop chaotic structure of the receiving end to generate a chaotic synchronization signal, and the other path is used as the ciphertext signal. In this way, it is easy to achieve chaotic synchronization between the sending and receiving ends, and the transmission process of the chaotic synchronization signal in the public transmission link is avoided, fundamentally ensuring the confidentiality of the system.

[0070] (2) The receiving end of the present invention adjusts the length of the optical fiber delay line through the delay test and feedback unit to make the relative delay between the two paths of signals output by the power splitter zero, so as to quickly obtain a chaotic signal synchronized with the sending end.

[0071] (3) The structure of the present invention is simple, easy to build, and convenient for engineering application.

[0072] The above-disclosed is only a preferred embodiment of a secure communication system and method based on receiving chaotic synchronization test and adjustment of the present invention. Of course, the scope of the rights of the present invention cannot be limited thereby. Those of ordinary skill in the art can understand all or part of the processes of implementing the above embodiments, and the equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present invention still fall within the scope covered by the present invention.
