Analysis of Observed Chaotic Data

This text examines methods for separating the signal of physical interest from the contamination by chaotic noise, for investigating the phase space of the chaotic noise and its properties, and for modelling the behaviour of the chaotic noise. The author considers the means of controlling chaotic behaviour and using this control to communicate between source and receiver. The emphasis throughout is on the use of the modern mathematical tools for investigating chaotic behaviour to uncover properties of physical systems.
