Chaotic Signal Processing

Chaos is a deterministic random phenomenon. Many signal processes (e.g., radar and sonar) have a random appearance, and chaos provides an alternative approach to processing these signals. This book presents up-to-date research results on chaotic signal processing, including the application of nonlinear dynamics to radar target recognition, an exactly solvable chaos approach for communications, a chaotic approach for reconfigurable computing, system identification using chaos, design of a high resolution LADAR system based on chaos, and the use of chaos in compressive sensing.

Audience: This book is intended for researchers and graduate students in chaos, applied nonlinear dynamics, signal processing, and radar communications.
