A quaternion-based modified feistel cipher for multimedia transmission
PublikacjaIn this paper a quaternion-based modified Feistel Cipher is proposed. The algorithm is based on the scheme proposed by Sastry and Kumar (2012). Our algorithm uses special properties of quaternions to perform rotations of data sequences in 3D space for each of the cipher rounds. The plaintext (image in gray-tone) is divided into two square matrices of equal size which consist of Lipschitz quaternions. A modular arithmetic was implemented...
