Image encryption-then-transmission combining random sub-block scrambling and loop DNA algorithm in an optical chaotic system

In this paper, an image encryption scheme based on random sub-block scrambling and loop deoxyribonucleic acid algorithm in optical chaotic system is proposed. A main laser drives four twin slaver laser pairs to generate high random and complex chaos sequences, which are employed for encryption and transmission. Multiplying eight control parameters (stemming from Hash algorithm between the external key and plain image) by the three groups of...
