Quantum color image encryption technology based on hyper-chaotic systems

In order to improve the security of traditional encryption systems, hyper-chaotic systems are introduced into the field of quantum image encryption. Firstly, the image is bitwise XOR by He fractional order hyper-chaotic Rabinovich system, and then the color image is represented as a quantum superposition state. The quantum image is scrambled by the unitary matrix generated by Logistic hyper-chaotic sequence, and then a hyper-chaotic sequence is generated to randomly replace the red, green and blue primary colors of each pixel to achieve the purpose of quantum image encryption. Finally, numerical simulation experiments are carried out on a computer. The experimental results show that the histogram of the encrypted image is flatter and even, the pixels are evenly distributed between 0 and 255, the correlation between adjacent pixels of the image is low. The average correlation coefficients of the red, green, and blue pixels of the encrypted image are 0.0012, 0.0025, and 0.0018. The system has high key sensitivity and can effectively resist statistical analysis attacks. The algorithm has good security and robustness.
