Abstract
In synchronized chaotic lasers based secure key distribution and other encrypted communications, presence of the time delay signature in chaos poses a threat to security. So the transmitter and receiver lasers should preferably be operated in complexity enhanced chaotic regime where the time delay signature is hidden. However, achieving good synchronization in experiments in such regime is challenging. We report experimental demonstration of achieving excellent synchronization between two semiconductor lasers even when both the lasers are operating in complexity enhanced chaotic regime with absolutely no time delay signature present in their output. This chaotic regime is ensured by evaluating the auto correlation function, permutation entropy and spectrum analysis of the time series. As a measure of synchronization, cross-correlation coefficient of 0.923 is achieved between the transmitter and receiver lasers. This results are of immense importance in chaos based secure key distribution and other encrypted communication schemes.
