Abstract
In order to demodulate a Differential Chaos Shift Keying (DCSK) signal , the energy carried by the received chaotic signal must be determined . Since a chaotic signal is not periodic, the energy per bit carried b y the chaotic signal can only be estimated, even in the noise-free cas e. This estimation has a non-zero variance that limits the attainable data rate. In this paper the DCSK technique is combined with frequency modulation in order to overcome the estimation problem and to improve the data rate of DCSK modulation.
