Summary: | With the development of communication technology, there is a more urgent demand for enhancing the security of data transmission. In order to improve the security of the traditional chaotic laser communication system, we propose a new scheme by the introduction of wavelength-hopping technology based on tunable lasers. In our new scheme, due to the hopping of wavelengths and the pseudo-randomness of the wavelength-hopping sequence, it is difficult for the eavesdropper to intercept the information and predict to which wavelength the hopping station will hop. The numerical simulation results show that the average bit error rate of eavesdropping is about five orders of magnitude higher than that of working normally. This indicates that the introduction of wavelength-hopping technology can improve the difficulty of message decoding and improve the confidentiality of the system. This scheme can be used to realize a high level of privacy in the design of chaotic laser communication systems in the future. |
