Pulses of chaos synchronization in coupled map chains with delayed transmission.
Pulses of synchronization in chaotic coupled map lattices are discussed in the context of transmission of information. Synchronization and desynchronization propagate along the chain with different velocities which are calculated analytically from the spectrum of convective Lyapunov exponents. Since the front of synchronization travels slower than the front of desynchronization, the maximal possible chain length for which information can be transmitted by modulating the first unit of the chain is bounded.
