PROPOSED METHOD
In the proposed method, the HL2 and LH2 bands were used
to embed a watermark to the image. Any or both of the bands
could be used for embedding the watermark. However, in the
proposed method both of the bands were used to reduce the
false positive signal. LL band was not used for embedding the
watermark to ensure high fidelity of the image. HH band is
generally avoided as it contains important edge information of
the image. The LL1 component was also used in the proposed
scheme as an approximation of the original image and it is
encoded into the LSBs of watermarked image as a recovery
mark. This recovery mark is extracted from the transmitted
image. If any tampering is detected in the transmitted image
then this extracted recovery mark is used to restore the image
to its original state. To obtain wavelet transform band we used
Haar wavelet with lifting scheme. Furthermore, the operation is
done in only integer domain to ensure lossless decomposition.
It also ensured high computational speed of the proposed
scheme.
In the proposed method DWT coefficients of HL2 and LH2
bands were quantized. The technique used for quantizing the
DWT coefficients is as follows:
Let d is the amount of modulation in DWT coefficient after
quantization and b is the value of the watermark bit in the
reference pattern that will be embedded. Also, let p is the DWT
coefficient to be modulated and m is the modulated DWT
coefficient. Now, m will be modulated using following
algorithm:
f = floor(p/(2*d))
c = ceil(p/(2*d))
if |v-f| <= |v-c|
if b == 0
m = f*2*d
else
m = f*2*d + d
endif
else
if b == 0
m = (f+1)*2*d
else
m = (f+1)*2*d + d
endif
endif
