Abstract

When the existing methods are used to encrypt the lightweight infrared image, there is no denoising processing for the lightweight infrared image, which has the problems of low image signal-to-noise ratio, low encryption efficiency and poor encryption effect. A dual chaotic encryption method for lightweight infrared image is proposed. The discrete orthogonal wavelet transform is used to process the lightweight infrared image. The wavelet coefficients of the lightweight infrared image are estimated by improving the block singular value decomposition. The estimated high-frequency image and low-frequency image are transformed by inverse wavelet transform to complete the denoising of the lightweight infrared image. The wavelet coefficients are estimated by threshold method or minimum mean square error method, and then the noise free lightweight infrared image is obtained by inverse wavelet transform. The lightweight infrared image is encrypted by double scrambling of pixel position and bit, and the dual chaotic encryption of lightweight infrared image is realized. The experimental results show that the security coefficient of the image encrypted by this method is more than 0.8. This method has high image signal-to-noise ratio, high encryption efficiency and good encryption effect.
