Abstract :
Chaotic electromagnetic waves are candidates for secure communications, target detection, imaging and remote sensing. Although baseband chaotic waves share the wideband feature with short pulse electromagnetic waves, these chaotic waves have multiscale characteristics and can be subject to synchronization also. We examine the application of chaotic synchronization to wave scattering in an imperfect channel. We define synchronization mismatch and investigate its dependence on channel characteristics.
