Abstract
We present a novel multiple-image encryption algorithm by combining log-polar transform with double random phase encoding in the fractional Fourier domain. In this algorithm, the original images are transformed to annular domains by inverse log-polar transform and then the annular domains are merged into one image. The composite image is encrypted by the classical double random phase encoding method. The proposed multiple-image encryption algorithm takes advantage of the data compression characteristic of log-polar transform to obtain high encryption efficiency and avoids cross-talk in the meantime. Optical implementation of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated and numerical simulation results verify the feasibility and the validity of the proposed algorithm.Keywords
