Abstract

With the development of network technology, multimedia security has attracted extensive attention. Although chaotic system is widely used in this field because of its own characteristics, designing a more secure and efficient chaotic system and encryption algorithm has great application potential. In this paper, a new spatiotemporal chaos model, dynamic coupled perturbation map lattice (DCPML), is proposed. The variable function is introduced to replace the coupling input variable of spatiotemporal chaotic system, and the output of two-dimensional Logistic map is used as dynamic coupling coefficient and disturbance term to improve the pseudo randomness and chaos of the system. Through a series of analysis, it is proved that the model has excellent chaotic characteristics. The system is applied to chaotic encryption, and a new bit-level image encryption algorithm is designed. The algorithm breaks the correlation between pixels through bit-level confusion and diffusion operation. A large number of experiments and security analysis show that the algorithm can resist common attacks and has high security and robustness.
