Topological charge number multiplexing for JTC multiple-image encryption.

We propose a method of topological charge number multiplexing based on the JTC encryption system to achieve multiple-image encryption. Using this method, multi-image can be encrypted into single ciphertext, and the original images can be recovered according to the authority level. The number of encrypted images is increased, moreover, the quality of decrypted images is improved. Results of computer simulation and initial experiment identify the validity of our proposed method.
