Anti-Chaos Control via Nonlinear Schrödinger Equations for the secured optical communication

Abstract: Coupled nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations, governing the propagation of envelopes of electromagnetic waves in birefringent optical fibers, are studied in this paper for their potential applications in the secured optical communication. Periodicity and integrability of the CNLS equations are obtained via the phase-plane analysis. With the time-delay and perturbations introduced, CNLS equations are chaotified and a chaotic system is proposed. Numerical and analytical methods are conducted on such system: (I) Phase projections are given and the final chaotic states can be observed. (II) Power spectra and the largest Lyapunov exponents are calculated to corroborate that those motions are indeed chaotic.
