A survey of chaos and its applications

The relatively new science of chaos has now entered an exciting stage of practical application to real-world problems, impacting such diverse areas as communications, fluid mechanics, and physiology. This paper will introduce the basics of dynamical systems, provide a beginner's guide to chaos and the closely related disciplines of fractals and wavelets, and discuss several novel communications/signal processing applications of interest to microwave engineers.
