Abstract

This paper proposes a digital watermarking algorithm based on Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) transform. Arnold scrambling technology is used to binary watermarking information for pretreatment. Then, the binary watermarking information is embedded in the corresponding component of the DCT transform to implement watermarking embedding solutions. The algorithm is simple and easy to implement. The Matlab simulation results demonstrate that the algorithm has validity, reliability, resistance to attack, robustness and invisibility.
