Abstract

Abstract In recent years, constructing hidden attractors with multi-scroll has become a key discussion point in the research and application fields of chaos science. In this paper, with the existing four-dimensional (4D) chaotic system as the base, a new four-dimensional chaotic system featuring significant characteristics of multi-scroll hidden attractors is constructed by adding a nonlinear function. Comprehensive studies including theoretical analyses and numerical simulations have been carried out on the dynamic properties of the new chaotic system, and all the results show that this system exhibits extremely complex chaotic behaviours and excellent unpredictability, which has great value in image encryption. Therefore, an image encryption scheme based on the new chaotic system is proposed, which cleverly integrates the new scrambling algorithm based on parity coordinate transformation and the new rotational diffusion algorithm. And the effectiveness of this encryption algorithm has been thoroughly analyzed and tested. The results based on the experiments show that this encryption algorithm exhibits significant advantages in performance, which can greatly enhance the security of images during encryption and transmission.
