Title
Multiple-image encryption based on chaotic phase mask and equal modulus decomposition in quaternion gyrator domain
Abstract
In order to transmit multiple-image synchronously, this paper introduces an encryption algorithm by combining equal modulus decomposition with quaternion gyrator transform. Firstly, each color image is encoded into a quaternion-valued matrix for a holistic processing. With the chaotic random phase mask, the quaternion gyrator spectrum is obtained. It is subsequently split into a complex-valued interim matrix and the equal modulus decomposition is performed to enhance the security, where the spectrum is divided into two complex-valued masks. Thereafter, the two set of phase masks are respectively superimposed and followed by gyrator transforms. Finally, a real-valued matrix is constructed as the final ciphertext image by splicing the real and imaginary parts together. The phase masks that are generated using the chaotic and real-valued ciphertext are convenient to storage and transmission. Moreover, the initial conditions are closely related with the plaintext images, which makes the cryptosystem achieve high security. Numerical simulations are made to demonstrate the reliability of the proposed cryptosystem.
