Abstract

This paper deals with strategies to dramatically reduce the complexity for embedding based on syndrome coding. In contrast to existing approaches, our goal is to keep the embedding efficiency constant, i.e., to embed less complexly without increasing the average number of embedding changes, compared to the classic Matrix Embedding scenario.

Generally, our considerations are based on structured codes, especially on BCH Codes. However, they are not limited to this class of codes.

We propose different approaches to reduce embedding complexity concentrating on both syndrome coding based on a parity check matrix and syndrome coding based on the generator polynomial.
