Abstract:
We propose a method for the reconstruction of time-delayed feedback systems having unobserved variables from scalar time series. The method is based on the modified initial condition approach, which allows one to significantly reduce the number of starting guesses for an unobserved variable with a time delay. The proposed method is applied to the reconstruction of the Lang-Kobayashi equations, which describe the dynamics of a single-mode semiconductor laser with external optical feedback. We consider the case where only the time series of laser intensity is observable and the other two variables of the model are hidden. The dependence of the quality of the system reconstruction on the accuracy of assignment of starting guesses for unobserved variables and unknown laser parameters is studied. The method could be used for testing the security of information transmission in laser-based chaotic communication systems.
