Design of input phase mask for the space bandwidth of the optical encryption system

A method to design an input phase mask for double-random phase-encoding optical encryption is proposed. The input phase mask is iteratively designed so that the extent of the Fourier spectrum of the product of an input image and the input phase mask correspond to the space bandwidth of the optical system. By using the designed input phase mask, we show that the bit-error rate is improved. We also discuss the number of phase levels of the designed input phase mask.
