Fully digital encryption technique

We propose an alternative fully digital encryption technique based on using the Fourier transform of the original object to be processed and a speckled reference wave as encryption mask. Once encrypted, the Fourier transform spectrum of the object is holographically stored. The original-data recovering is performed by digital reconstruction using the same encryption mask, which is also holographically stored. Quality of reconstructed data is evaluated as a function of the sensed encrypted data. Computer simulations and experimental results are presented to demonstrate the method.
