A novel shuffling technique based on fractional chaotic maps

An image encryption technique based on the fractional logistic map is designed in this work. A novel shuffling technique is established by use of fractional chaotic signals. Then it is used to scramble pixel positions. The results are analyzed in comparison with the classical logistic map. Since the employed fractional chaotic map holds complicated dynamics behavior, the encryption result is highly secure. Moreover, by experimental and statistical analysis, we demonstrate that the encryption performance is better than the results in literature.
