Chua's circuit has acquired wide attention because of its simple circuit structure and rich dynamical behaviors. This thesis mainly investigates the chaotic signals generated by the double-scroll attractor family of the circuits.Firstly, based on cyclostationary signal theory, the non-stationarity of the chaotic signals is analyzed. Simulations show that the signals exhibit the cyclostationarity. Then, the signals are further analyzed from the point of view of the time-frequency analyses. The time-frequency distribution characteristics are revealed and relations with the cyclostationarity are established from the physical mechanisms. Finally, the prediction of the chaotic signals are studied. Based on the distribution characteristics, a distribution-based decomposition prediction method is developed. Simulation shows that the proposed method has better prediction performance than the wavelet-based decomposition method can do. |
