The invention relates to a two-step quadrature phase-shift
interferometry-based
optical image encryption device and a method, which belong to the
optical image processing technical field. The two-step quadrature phase-shift
interferometry-based
optical image encryption device comprises an optical image
encryption device and an optical image decryption device. Due to the adoption of the two-step quadrature phase-shift
interferometry-based optical image encryption device, strength information of substance light
waves and reference light
waves are not required to
record, so the calculation amount and the storage amount can be reduced, the transmission efficiency of the information is improved, the
system is simplified, and the cost is reduced. Since only two holographs are required to
record, the experimental operation steps can be simplified by reducing the recording times. Since the
charge coupled device (CCD) recorded digital hologram has advantages of real-time recording,
digital memory, digital transmission and the like, encrypted information can be transmitted to an
electronic computer of the decryption device to be decrypted in an electronic way to reappear, and the
optical encryption technology can be better compatible with the
digital signal processing and communication
system so as to be widely used. In addition,
system parameter key is also increased while the security of a double random
phase coding method is guaranteed, so the security of the system is further improved.
