In this paper, a practical image security system using SA algorithm and 4-f optical correlator system is proposed. The encrypted image and key image with binary phase components are generated using an iterative SA algorithm. a decrypted image is found through the correlation of the encrypted and key images using 4-f optical correlator system. The encrypted and key images are consisted of binary phase components. So, it is easy to implement the optical security system using the proposed technique. And if we fix the encrypted image in the optical security system and change the key images, we get different images, so it is possible to apply to the distinguished authorization system using different key images. Computer simulations show that despite the binary phase components of the two images(encrypted and key image), decrypted images are generated.

본 논문에서는 간섭계와 직렬 위상 카드를 이용한 광 보안 시스템을 제안하였다. 먼저 원영상을 암호화하기 위해 원영상을 암호화하는 것이 아니라 원영상에 대한 이진 위상 컴퓨터형성홀로그램을 반복 알고리즘을 이용하여 구하고, 이진 위상 컴퓨터형성홀로그램과 무작위 생성된 위상 키 영상과의 XOR 연산을 통해 암호화된 영상을 구한다. 홀로그램의 복호화 과정은 암호화된 영상과 암호화시에 사용된 무작위 위상 영상 키를 직렬 정합시킨 후, 기준파와의 간섭에 의해 수행된다. 이때, 간섭패턴은 주위 환경에 상당히 민감하다. 그래서 광굴절매질의 자기위상공액성질을 이용하여 안정된 간섭패턴을 얻는다. 그리고 원영상은 복원된 홀로그램을 위상 변조한 후, 역푸리에 변환하여 최종적으로 구한다. 제안된 시스템에서는 암호화시에 사용된 무작위 키 영상 정보가 없으면 전혀 복원이 되지 않고, 키 영상을 달리함에 따라 복원되는 홀로그램의 패턴을 달리할 수 있으므로 차별화된 인증 시스템에 활용할 수 있다. 그리고 홀로그램의 성질에 의해 암호화된 영상이 일부 절단되더라도 원래의 영상을 복원할 수 있다.

In this paper, we propose the new optical security technique using two phase holograms based on interferometer. The encoded random phase image does not have any information on the original image. Without Hewing the key mask, one cannot decode the encrypted image and regenerate the original image. And the use of two phase only images in the proposed security system leads to maximum optical efficiency (100% in theory). Also they cannot be detected by an intensity detector such as a CCD camera. Computer simulations and optical experiments show performance of the proposed methods.

In this paper, we propose an improved image encryption and decryption method using a phase-encoded virtual image and interference. An original image is simply decrypted by interfering a reference wave with the wave passing through a decrypting key and the encrypted image, where every image has grey level. The proposed encryption is performed by the multiplication of an encrypting key and a phase-encoded virtual image which dose not contain any information for the original image. Therefore even if unauthorized people analyze the encrypted image, they cannot reconstruct the original image. Also grey image encryption can improve the encryption level compared to binary image encryption. Computer simulation and optical experiments confirmed that the proposed technique is a simple for optical encryption.

In this paper, optical image encryption using integral imaging and pixel-scrambling technologies is proposed. In the encryption process, we use pixel scrambling to change the order of subsections into which the cover image is divided, and the utilize the integral imaging scheme to obtain the elemental image from the scrambled image. In order to achieve higher security, we reuse pixel scrambling to the elemental image. In the decryption process, we employ optical integral imaging reconstruction technique and inverse pixel scrambling methode. Computer simulation results prove the feasibility of the proposed method and robustness against data loss and noise.

We proposed the optical system using two divided halftone images to hide the original image and a joint transform correlator. The encryption procedure is performed by the Fourier transform of the product of each divided image by visual cryptography and the same random image which is generated by computer processing. As a result, we can obtain two Fourier divided images which are used as the encrypted image and the decrypting key, respectively. In the decryption procedure, both the encrypted image and the decrypting key are located on the joint input plane. Then the original image is reconstructed on a CCD camera which is located in the output plane. An autocorrelation term of joint transform correlator contributes to decrypt the original image. To demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed system, computer simulations and noise analysis are performed. The result show that the proposed system is a very useful optical certification system.

In this paper, we propose a high-level optical encryption system, which is tolerant with noises and cropping, by encrypting the phase-encoded CGH pattern of original image with the phase-encoded Fresnel diffraction pattern of random key images. For encryption, the phase-encoded CGH pattern of original image is multiplied by conjugate components which are the phase-encoded Fresnel diffraction patterns of random key images. The original information can be reconstructed by multiplying encrypted image by phase-encoded Fresnel diffraction pattern of random key images and performing Fourier transform of the multiplication result. The proposed system is robust to noises and cropping due to characteristics of CGH pattern and can guarantee high-level encryption by using Fresnel diffraction information. We verified the validity of proposed system by computer simulations, numerical analysis of noises and cropping effect and optical experiment.

In this paper, we proposed an optical security system based on a gray-image exclusive-OR encryption using multi-phase separation and phase-wrapping method. For encryption, a gray image is sliced into binary images, which have the same pixel value, and these images are encrypted by modified XOR rules with binary random images. The XORed images and the binary images respectively combined and converted into full phase images, called an encrypted image and a key image. For decryption, when the encrypted image and key image are used as inputs on optical elements, Practically due to limited controllability of phase range in optical elements, the original gray image cannot be efficiently reconstructed by these optical elements. Therefore, by decreasing the phase ranges of the encrypted image and key image using a phase-wrapping method and separating these images into low-level phase images using multi-phase separation, the gray image can be reconstructed by optical elements which have limited control range. The decrytion process is simply implemented by interfering a multiplication result of encrypted image and key image with reference light. The validity of proposed scheme is verified and the effects, which are caused by phase limitation in decryption process, is analyzed by using computer simulations.

본 논문에서는 결합변환상관기(joint transform correlator)와 위상 암호화된 영상들을 이용하여 영상의 인식 및 복호화가 가능한 광 암호화 시스템을 제안하였다. 그레이 값을 가지는 원 영상은 동일한 그레이 값을 가지는 이진 영상으로 나누어 표현할 있다. 이러한 이진 영상들을 각각의 다른 이진 무작위 영상과 위상 부호화한 XOR 연산을 이용해 암호화할 수 있으며. 암호화한 영상들을 결합한 후 위상 부호화 과정을 거쳐 최종 암호화 영상를 구한다. 키 영상은 암호화에 사용된 각각의 이진 무작위 영상들을 최종 암호와 영상를 얻을때의 과정처럼 결합하여 역시 하나의 영상으로 구할 수 있다. 최종 암호화 영상과 키 영상을 제안한 결합변환상관기의 입력으로 사용하여 구한 상관치는 높고 폭이 좁은 특성을 가지고 있으므로 분별성능이 좋은 인식 시스템을 구현할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 복호화 영상도 구할 수 있다. 컴퓨터 모의 실험으로 제안한 방법을 확인해보았다.
