Abstract
We propose a multichannel random discrete fractional Fourier transform (MRFrFT) with random weighting coefficients and partial transform kernel functions. First, the weighting coefficients of each channel are randomized. Then, the kernel functions, selected based on a choice scheme, are randomized using a group of random phase-only masks (RPOMs). The proposed MRFrFT can be carried out both electronically and optically, and its main features and properties have been given. Numerical simulation about one-dimensional signal demonstrates that the MRFrFT has an important feature that the magnitude and phase of its output are both random. Moreover, the MRFrFT of two-dimensional image can be viewed as a security enhanced image encryption scheme due to the large key space and the sensitivity to the private keys.
