Triple image encryption scheme in fractional Fourier transform domains

Abstract We proposed a triple image encryption scheme by use of fractional Fourier transform. In this algorithm, an original image is encoded in amplitude part and other two images are encoded into phase information. The key of encryption algorithm is obtained from the difference between the third image and the output phase of transform. In general case, random phase encoding technology is not required in the proposed algorithm. Moreover, all information of images is preserved in theory when image are decrypted with correct key. The optical implementation of the algorithm is presented with an electro-optical hybrid structure. Numerical simulations have demonstrated the efficiency and the security of this algorithm. Based on this scheme a multiple image algorithm is expanded and designed.
