Abstract

Spread Spectrum System (SSS) or Code Division Multiple Access System (CDMAS) has been studied for a long time, but most of the attention was focused on the transmission problems. In this paper, we study the results when the code division technique is applied to the image at the source stage. The idea is to convolve the N different images with the corresponding m-sequence to obtain the encrypted image. The superimposed image (summation of the encrypted images) is then stored or transmitted. The benefit of this is that no one knows what is stored or transmitted unless the m-sequence is known. The recovery of the original image is recovered by correlating the superimposed image with corresponding m-sequence. Two cases are studied in this paper. First, the 2-D image is treated as a long 1-D vector and the m-sequence is employed to obtained the results. Secondly, the 2-D quasi m-array is proposed and used for the code division multiplexing. It is showed that quasi m-array is faster when the image size is 256x256. The important features of the proposed technique are not only the image security but also the data compactness. The compression ratio depends on how many images are superimposed.
