Masking Digital Image using a Novel technique based on a Transmission Chaotic System and SPIHT Coding Algorithm

In this article, a new transmission system of encrypted image based on novel chaotic system and SPIHT technique is proposed. This chaotic system is made up of two chaotic systems already developed: the discrete-time modified Henon chaotic system and the continuous-time Colpitts one. The transmission system is designed to take profit of two advantages. The first is the use of a robust and standard algorithm (SPIHT) which is appropriate to the digital transmission. The second is to introduce farther complexity of the encryption using the chaotic system over secure channel. Through these two advantages, our purpose is to obtain a robust system against pirate attacks. Cryptanalysis and various experiments have been carried out and the results were reported in this paper, which demonstrate the feasibility and flexibility of the proposed scheme.
