This paper proposes an efficient technique for iris using texture and phase features. Inner pupil boundary is localized using dynamic thresholding technique and Circular Hough Transform. Texture features are extracted on the normalized iris strip using Haar Wavelet while phase features are obtained using LOG Gabor Wavelet. The matching scores generated from individual modules are combined using weighted sum of score technique. The combined system is giving an accuracy of 97.66%.
