Image encryption based on a reality-preserving fractional discrete cosine transform and a chaos-based generating sequence

A novel image encryption technique based on a reality-preserving fractional discrete cosine transform (FrDCT) and a chaos-based generating sequence is proposed. The FrDCT is a generalization of the discrete cosine transform (DCT). This reality-preserving FrDCT inherits the virtues of both the DCT and fractional transform, providing improved security and flexibility by employing the generating sequence as an extra key in addition to the fractional orders. The most fascinating advantage of the FrDCT is its reality-preserving property, which ensures real ciphertext for real plaintext, which is conducive to display, storage, and transmission. Performance and security analysis demonstrates that this algorithm is valid, secure, sensitive to keys, and robust to noise and occlusion attacks.
