Abstract

This paper presents a new watermarking scheme to reduce the detection error probability through removal of local mean values of an original signal. It will be analytically proven that the removal process plays role in reducing the interference between an original signal and a watermark to be embedded. This is simply based on the orthogonality of the DC signal and the AC signal. As a result, the process improves the ability of the right detection. The proposed method is analytically and empirically evaluated with no attack as well as JPEG compression attacks.
