Random sequences generation through optical measurements by phase-shifting interferometry
Résumé
The development of new techniques for producing random sequences with a high level of security is a challenging topic of research in modern cryptographics. The proposed method is based on the measurement by phase-shifting interferometry of the speckle signals of the interaction between light and structures. We show how the combination of amplitude and phase distributions (maps) under a numerical process can produce random sequences. The produced sequences satisfy all the statistical requirements of randomness and can be used in cryptographic schemes.
