Simulator verification techniques study. Integrated simulator self test system concepts

Software and hardware requirements for implementing hardware self tests are presented in support of the development of training and procedures development simulators for the space shuttle program. Self test techniques for simulation hardware and the validation of simulation performance are stipulated. The requirements of an integrated simulator self system are analyzed. Readiness tests, fault isolation tests, and incipient fault detection tests are covered

Breaking a secure communication scheme based on the phase synchronization of chaotic systems

A security analysis of a recently proposed secure communication scheme based on the phase synchronization of chaotic systems is presented. It is shown that the system parameters directly determine the ciphertext waveform, hence it can be readily broken by parameter estimation of the ciphertext signal.Comment: 4 pages, 6 figure

Breaking parameter modulated chaotic secure communication system

This paper describes the security weakness of a recently proposed secure communication method based on parameter modulation of a chaotic system and adaptive observer-based synchronization scheme. We show that the security is compromised even without precise knowledge of the chaotic system used.Comment: 8 pages, 3 figures, latex forma

Lorenz System Parameter Determination and Application to Break the Security of Two-channel Chaotic Cryptosystems

This paper describes how to determine the parameter values of the chaotic Lorenz system used in a two-channel cryptosystem. The geometrical properties of the Lorenz system are used firstly to reduce the parameter search space, then the parameters are exactly determined, directly from the ciphertext, through the minimization of the average jamming noise power created by the encryption process.Comment: 5 pages, 5 figures Preprint submitted to IEEE T.
