A method for detecting a continuous chaotic signal with a Gaussian noise by quantizing over four amplitudes and comparing the parameters of the obtained discrete sequence with the parameters of a similar sequence for a non-noisy chaotic signal is proposed. A quantization scheme is developed. It is determined by the structure of the phase space of a dynamic system that generates a chaotic signal. The source of the chaotic signal is a model of a radio engineering generator. The identified chaotic signal has a positive senior Lyapunov exponent and a continuous power spectrum. Keywords: chaotic signals, detection of chaotic signals, non-coherent reception of chaotic signals, quantization of chaotic oscillations.
