Adaptive Fast Image Encryption Algorithm Based on Three-Dimensional Chaotic System

Abstract

This paper introduces a novel three-dimensional chaotic system that exhibits diverse dynamic behaviors as parameters vary, including phase trajectory offset behaviors and expansion–contraction phenomena. This model encompasses a broad chaotic range and proves suitable for integration within image encryption. Building upon this chaotic system, the study devised a fast image encryption algorithm with an adaptive mechanism, capable of autonomously determining optimal encryption strategies to enhance algorithm security. In pursuit of heightened encryption speed, an FPGA-based chaotic sequence generator was developed for the image encryption algorithm, leveraging the proposed chaotic system. Furthermore, a more efficient scrambling algorithm was devised. Experimental results underscore the superior performance of this algorithm in terms of both encryption duration and security.
