Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for chaotic communication in a wireless personal area network, A chaotic information carrier is generated for a first predetermined frequency range using a ring-structure oscillator. The ring structure oscillator includes a non-linear element. Chaotic pulses are generated by modulating the chaotic information carrier for the first predetermined frequency range with a data signal. A shape of a spectral density envelope of the chaotic information carrier for the first predetermined frequency range is determined based on a set of parameters which include a first set of values.

Abstract: Spread spectrum transmission of information is performed using chaotic signals. Direct chaotic communication systems in which information is input to chaotic signal generated directly in information transmission frequency band, are achieved by forming broadband information carrier necessary for transmission and using a chaotic dynamic system whose structure is synthesized in advance in accordance with predetermined characteristics of broadband information carrier to cause chaotic dynamic system to provide operation of forming the broadband information carrier in form of a chaotic information carrier having prescribed spectral characteristics.

Abstract: Provided is an apparatus and a method of measuring a distance between devices using a low clock frequency signal. The apparatus includes clock frequency generators, counters, a controller and a calculator for determining the distance based on clock signal overlap. Radio waves are transmitted and a number of clocks of a clock signal having a clock frequency b are counted, and if the transmitted radio waves are received again, a number of clocks of a clock signal having a clock frequency a are counted. If the clock signals having the clock frequencies a and b overlap with each other, counting of the numbers of the clocks of the clock signals having the frequencies b and a stops, and the distance is measured using the count values of the clock signals having the clock frequencies a and b. As a result, number of clocks of clock signals having low clock frequencies with a uniform difference can be counted to precisely measure a distance.
