Cash Note With High Performance Security

Abstract

Rapid creation of fake notes affects the financial status, the value of the currency, unemployment rate, etc. In this paper, a cash note is generated with high level security features – it has specific serial number which will be encoded in that cash note with a procedure. Even if a person encodes the serial number in a fake cash note, the decoder will identify it as a fake one. If serial number and cash denomination at the decoding match with those of encoded cash note, then that note can be treated as genuine one. Otherwise it can be considered as a fake one. First, each digit of the serial number on the cash note is converted into binary number with a procedure and can be located beside the count indicator. Every cash note has some denomination and its decimal value is converted into binary number which can be kept beside the mode indicator. The count indicator and mode indicator are generated in the course of operation. The obtained encoded binary number is divided into codewords of 8 bits each. Each bit of code word is arranged at random locations in the cash note.
