Younghooi Hwang, Byeungwoo Jeon · Journal of the Institute of Electronics Engineers of Korea · 2002
Recent advances in technology have resulted in rapid growth in mobile communication. With this explosive growth, reliable transmission and error resilient technique become increasingly necessary to offer high quality multimedia service. The success of error resilient techniques at decoder sensitively depends on error detection performance. Therefore, this paper proposes a computationally very simple and efficient error detection technique using fragile watermark for real-time video communication. To balance between image quality degradation and error detection efficiency, fragile watermark is embedded only in least significant bits of selected transform coefficients. The proposed method is workable without additional bit in video bitstream and can be implemented very efficiently. This method will be useful in video communication in error prone environment such as wireless channel.
