Abstract

In this paper, an optical image hiding technique using real-valued decoding key is proposed. In the embedding process, a each zero-padded original image placed in a quadrants on an input plane is multiplied by a statistically independent random phase pattern and is Fourier transformed. An encoded image is obtained by taking the real-valued data from the Fourier transformed image. And then a phase-encoded pattern, used as a hidden image and a decoding key, is generated by the use of multiple phase wrapping from the encoded images. A transmitted image is made from the linear superposition of the weighted hidden images and a cover image. In reconstruction process, the mirror reconstructed images can be obtained at two quadrants by the inverse-Fourier transform of the product of the transmitted image and the decoding key. Computer simulation and optical experiment are demonstrated in order to confirm the proposed technique.
