High-Performance chaotic secure communication based on VCSELs systems with phase modulation and dispersion compensation

Based on two response vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (R-VCSELs) subject to identical chaos optical injection with phase modulation and dispersion compensation, we propose and numerically investigate a high-speed bidirectional chaotic secure communication system. The driving VCSEL (D-VCSEL) is used to generate the injected chaotic signals to two R-VCSELs. After introducing the phase modulation and dispersion compensation into injection path, the bandwidth of chaotic carrier from the linear polarization components of R-VCSEL1 and R-VCSEL2 can be extended to 45GHz and corresponding time delay signatures (TDSs) can be suppressed to about 0.15. Moreover, high-quality chaos synchronization between corresponding polarization components of two R-VCSELs but very low correlation between the D-VCSEL and any R-VCSEL can be achieved. On this basis, the bidirectional dual-channel information transmission of 30 Gbit/s over 100 km fiber link is successfully realized.
