Abstract

This paper presents a new method for encrypting holographic information based on optical and acoustic signals called a Virtual Optical Holographic Encryption (VOHE) system for underwater communications that can be applicable for communications between deep submergence research vehicles. The transmission medium is composed of a combination of optical signals and acoustic signals together to form the VOHE system for transmitting system information. The optical encryption system provides essential parameters for constructing secure communications such as the propagation wavelength (λ) and focal length (f) of the Fourier lens, which are considered as keys for implementing encryption and decryption processes. An expanded RSA (ERSA) algorithm using a complex function sends system information (λ, f) as a message to a receiver. To determine accuracy of the information retrieved by the proposed technique, the minimum mean square error (MSE) was conducted to evaluate the accuracy of the received signal. The VOHE system employs virtual optical encryption system was simulated based on COMSOL Multiphysics simulation software. Finally, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) method and Pollard’s rho method were separately applied to evaluate the proposed ERSA algorithm. Obtained results showed that ERSA is able to achieve a more significant security level than RSA.

Summary

Introduction

Underwater optical encryption has drawn great attention from researchers in the field of enhancing information security due to its remarkable advantages for rapidly and securely managing information processing [1,2,3,4]. Virtual optical encryption for holographic is a common kind of a new and a developing technology. It can handle very large computational domains which are able to increase sensitivity and reduce the signal to noise ratio (SNR) [7,8]. 2007,This which alsoemploys includedathe samesystem modulus as the above two schemes basedThis on an extension of RSA (ERSA).
