This book highlights the applications of optoelectronic chaotic signals in various fields, including lidars/radars, sensors, secure communication, and millimeter/terahertz noise generation. It covers the following topics:
- In lidar/radar detection, the book discusses chaotic lidar, chaotic through-wall life detection radar, and chaotic ground penetrating radar.
- Regarding optical fiber measurement and sensing, it provides a detailed examination of chaotic time-domain reflection measurement and chaotic distributed fiber sensing technologies.
- In the realm of secure communication, the book reviews optical chaos synchronization, chaotic secure optical communication, physical random number generators, and secure key distribution based on chaotic synchronization.
- For noise generation, it summarizes the millimeter/terahertz noise generation mechanism and noise source p
