A brief introduction of digital watermarking technology of audio signal based on discrete wavelet transform

In recent years, digital watermarking technology has become more and more important. Digital watermarking technology is to embed some identification information directly into the digital carrier, or indirectly expressed in the signal carrier, and does not affect the use value of the original carrier. Through the information hidden in the carrier, we can judge whether the information is tampered with, which has the functions of anti-counterfeiting traceability, information security protection and copyright protection. As for the broadcast relay station, it is the transfer station of the broadcast audio, and the safety and reliability of the signal must be guaranteed before the broadcast signal is sent to thousands of households. However, most of the stations at present only use the judgment of human ear and the comparison between different information sources, which has great limitations. If using the characteristics of digital watermarking, it can effectively prevent signal interruption, protect signal security and ensure the safety of broadcast.

According to the processing technology of digital watermarking in audio signal, digital watermarking can be divided into time domain, transform domain and compression domain.

1.1 Time-domain Digital Watermarking In time-domain digital watermarking technology, watermark information is directly embedded into the audio signal, usually hidden in the signal is not important, to ensure that the embedded watermark does not affect the monitoring effect of the original audio signal. The realization of time-domain watermarking technology is relatively easy and has a small amount of calculation, simple and direct, but it is not robust, easy to crack, and poor resistance.

In digital watermarking in Transform domain, audio signals need to be transformed from time domain to Transform domain, usually including DCT, DFT, Discrete Fourier Transform (DWT), Discrete Wavelet Transform, etc. Watermark information is embedded in transform domain, and the audio time domain signal embedded with watermark is obtained by inverse transformation. The watermarking technology in transform domain is more complex than that in time domain, but the watermarking information embedded in transform domain has stronger invisibility, better concealment and better robustness than that in time domain. The research of this paper is mainly based on DWT audio signal watermark information embedding and extraction.

1.3 compressed domain digital watermarking in time domain and transform domain watermark techniques, are directly to embed the watermark signal into the uncompressed audio format, but usually in the audio signal transmission or storage needs of audio signal compression coding (such as WMA, MP3, etc.), so the compressed domain digital watermarking is watermark technology also has great practical value. Digital watermarking technology in compression domain can be roughly divided into three categories: (1) embed watermark in non-compression domain, compress audio signal and watermark information together; (2) In the compression domain, the watermark information is directly embedded into the compressed audio signal; (3) Decompress the compressed signal, embed the watermark information, and finally compress the watermark information and the decompressed audio signal together. In general, the encoding and decoding system of the compression domain watermarking technology is too complex, restricted by the compression coding format, and the redundancy of the compressed audio signal has been removed, so it is difficult to add watermarking, and the compression domain watermarking technology needs further research.

% MAIN MATLAB code for main.fig
%      MAIN, by itself, creates a new MAIN or raises the existing
%      singleton*.
%
%      H = MAIN returns the handle to a new MAIN or the handle to
%      the existing singleton*.
%
%      MAIN('CALLBACK',hObject,eventData,handles,...) calls the local
%      function named CALLBACK in MAIN.M with the given input arguments.
%
%      MAIN('Property'.'Value',...). creates anew MAIN or raises the

%      applied to the GUI before main_OpeningFcn gets called.  An
%      unrecognized property name or invalid value makes property application
%      stop.  All inputs are passed to main_OpeningFcn via varargin.
