Abstract
The coupled map lattices (CML) is a spatiotemporal chaotic system with complex dynamic behavior. In this paper, we propose a spatiotemporal chaotic system with a novel pseudo-random coupling method based on the elementary cellular automata (ECA), and add different perturbations to lattices in each iteration according to ECA. We investigate the spatiotemporal dynamic properties and chaotic behaviors of the proposed system such as bifurcation diagrams, Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy density, and universality. Moreover, the correlation between any two lattices is discussed. Theory analysis and simulation test indicate that the new system has better performance in complexity, ergodic and unpredictability than conventional CML systems such as adjacent CML and mixed linear-nonlinear CML. Furthermore, the correlation coefficient between any two lattices in proposed system is significantly lower than other systems, and another advantage of the proposed system is utilizing the output of ECA to perturb the chaotic system which can effectively alleviate the dynamical degradation in digital system. The excellent performance of proposed system demonstrates that it has great potential for crypto-system.
