Abstract :
We numerically show that the synchronization of two chaotic semiconductor lasers is possible when a small amount of output intensity from one Is injected into the other. We also show that a message can be encoded in the chaotic carrier, transmitted by an optical fiber and decoded by a receiver with a very good quality.
