DATA EMBEDDING DEVICE, DATA EXTRACTING DEVICE, AND AUDIO COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A voice communication system having, on a transmission side, a data embedding apparatus provided with an embedding allowability judgment unit (41) calculating an analysis parameter with respect to an input audio signal and judging based on the analysis parameter whether there is a part of the input audio signal allowing embedding of data and an embedding unit (42) outputting an audio signal having the data embedded in the allowable part when the result of judgment of the embedding allowability judgment unit is data can be embedded and outputting the audio signal as is when the result of judgment of the embedding allowability judgment unit is data cannot be embedded and having, on the receiving side, a data extraction apparatus provided with a data extraction apparatus extracting data by a reverse operation is provided, whereby data can be embedded in voice signals without causing an unallowable change in audio quality and a drop in amount of embedded data due to embedding data in parts unsuitable for embedding data.
