Abstract: | An information hiding method based on the optical interference principle is proposed. In this method, a secret image can be obtained by two light beams' interference. One of the beams is modulated by our assigned host image; and the other is modulated by a noise-like complex distribution, which is regard as the encrypted image. The transmission of the encrypted image can be implemented by hiding it in the host image to prevent the communication from being perceived by unauthorized person. In addition, this method can also realize simultaneous encryption and hiding for two images. A series of numerical simulation results are presented to verify the feasibility of our proposed method. |
