Abstract

In this paper, synchronization of chaotic Colpitts circuits using a particle filter (PF) to combat the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel effect is studied by numeric simulations. A novel PF algorithm suitable for chaos synchronization is proposed. With this algorithm, chaos synchronization of Colpitts circuits can be achieved and maintained in AWGN channels. Parameters in the proposed PF algorithm are studied to understand their effects on synchronization performance. The synchronization performance using the proposed PF algorithm is compared with those using other digital filters, such as the extended Kalman filter and the generic PF. It is found that the proposed PF algorithm performs better than the other digital filters. Simulation results also show that the particle number is not very critical to the synchronization performance when this PF algorithm is used.
