STEGOTEXT ENCODER AND DECODER

摘要

The invention comprises an encoder for encoding a stegotext and a decoder fo r decoding the encoded stegotext, the stegotext being generated by modulating the log power spectrogram of a covertext signal with at least one key, the o r each key having been added or subtracted in the log domain to the covertext power spectrogram in accordance with the data of the watermark code with whi ch the stegotext was generated, and the modulated power spectrogram having been returned into the original domain of the covertext. The decoder carries out Fast Fourier Transformation and rectangular polar conversion of the stegotex t signal so as to transform the stegotext signal into the log power spectrogra m domain; subtracts in the log power domain positive and negative multiples of the key or keys from blocks of the log power spectrogram and evaluates the probability of the results of such substractions representing an unmodified block of covertext in accordance with a predetermined statistical model.
