摘要：The advent of wireless communications, both inside and outside the home-office envi-ronment has led to an increased demand for effective encryption systems. The beauty of encryp-tion technology comes out in more pronounced way when there is no absolute relation between cipher and original data and it is possible to rebuild the original image in much easier way. As chaotic systems are known to be more random and non-predictable, they can be made utilized in achieving the encryption. The transposition technology of encryption systems requires scramble-ness behaviour in order to achieve the encryption of the data. This scrambleness behaviour can be derived from the randomness property of chaos which can be better utilized in the techniques like transposition system. In wireless communication systems, bandwidth utilization is an impor-tant criterion. In order to use encryption system in wireless communication; key space plays an important role for the efficient utilization of the bandwidth. In this paper we present a chaos-based encryption algorithm for images. This algorithm is based on pixel scrambling where in the randomness of the chaos is made utilized to scramble the position of the data. The position of the data is scrambled in the order of randomness of the elements obtained from the chaotic map and again rearranged back to their original position in decryption process. The same algoritm is tested with two different maps and performance analysis is done to select best suited map for en-cription.
