Abstract :
The use of chaotic sequences as spectral spreading sequences in direct-sequence spread-spectrum (DS/SS) communication systems is proposed. The error probabilities of such systems are investigated and shown to be, for all practical purposes, identical to the conventional DS/SS systems which use binary signature sequences. Among the advantages of the use of chaotic sequences in DS/SS are the availability of a great number of them, the ease of their generation, as well as their inherent improvement in the security of transmission
