Abstract
This paper is concerned with the feasibility of the Arnold scrambling based on Improved Flexible Representation of Quantum Images (IFRQI). Firstly, the flexible representation of quantum image is updated to the improved flexible representation of quantum image (IFRQI) to represent a quantum image with arbitrary size L × B. Then, by making use of Control-NOT gate and Adder-Modular operation, the concrete quantum circuit of Arnold scrambling for IFRQI is designed. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed circuit.
