文摘A watermarking scheme for digital images is introduced. This method is based on discrete wavelet transform and spread spectrum technique. A discrete wavelet transformed binary signature image is expanded by an m sequence and added to the large wavelet coefficients of a host image with a scale factor. Good balance between transparency and robustness is achieved by the selection of the scale factor. In addition, the spread spectrum technique is adopted to increase the robustness of this watermarking scheme. The experimental results show that the proposed method is of good performance and robustness for common image operations such as JPEG lossy compression, etc.
