Sliding mode observers and observability singularity in chaotic synchronization

We present a new secured data transmission based on a chaotic synchronization and observability singularity. For this, we adopt an approach based on an inclusion of the message in the system structure and we use a sliding mode observer for system with unknown input in order to recover the information. We end the paper with an example of chaotic system with an observability bifurcation. Moreover, this example highlights some benefits of the so-called step-by-step sliding mode observer.
