Hybrid Watermarking Algorithm using Finite Radon and Fractional Fourier Transform

TLDR
A watermarking scheme based on finite radon transform (FRAT), fractional Fourier Transform (FRFT) and singular value decomposition is proposed, which provides additional degree of freedom in security, robustness, payload capacity and visual transparence.
Abstract
Watermarking is proposed as solution to authentication, copyright protection and security requirements of multimedia objects (speech, image and video). In this paper a watermarking scheme based on finite radon transform (FRAT), fractional Fourier Transform (FRFT) and singular value decomposition is proposed. In the proposed scheme, image to be watermarked is first transformed by finite radon transform, the radon transformed image is further transformed by FRFT, and singular values of FRFT transformed image are modified to embed the watermark. Inverse transformation is applied to obtain watermarked image. Simulations are performed under various test conditions with different FRFT transform angles for improved robustness and visual transparence of watermarked image. Results of the proposed scheme are better in comparison to the existing schemes for most of the attacks. Proposed scheme provide additional degree of freedom in security, robustness, payload capacity and visual transparence. Proposed scheme can also be used to communicate or store the watermarked image as erasure code, to reduce communication errors over a network, due to the use of FRAT.
