Abstract

An approach to generate multiple pseudorandom-bit sequences from a single spatiotemporal chaotic system is proposed in this Letter. A coupled map lattice is adopted as a prototype of a spatiotemporal chaotic system. The cryptographic properties of the pseudorandom-bit generator based on the coupled map lattice (CML-MPRBG) are analyzed. It is observed from simulation results that the CML-MPRBG has good cryptographic properties. Basic security analysis of a stream cipher based on the CML-MPRBG is also discussed. The results show that the CML-MPRBG can be a good candidate for constructing a secure cipher. © 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
