    摘要: A method of concealing errors in a single bit bitstream x(n) comprises low pass filtering (F) the bitstream, replacing the low pass filtered signal during an error (EF) by a low frequency approximation (J) of the signal u(n) and subsequently converting the signal by a ⊤Δ-modulator (SO) into a regenerated single bit bitstream y(n). During the absence of an error the original bitstream x(n) may be outputted and during an error the regenerated bitstream y(n), which is obtained from a ΣΔ-modulator (SD), which is bit-synchronized (SU) to the original bitstream x(n).

    摘要: The invention relates to a method of authentication of a physical object and an apparatus applying said method. The method uses a helper data (Wl) and a control value (Vl) associated with a reference object to generate a first property set (Cl) using the helper data (Wl) and a metric (Y) associated with the physical object. It further comprises a step to generate a second property set (Sl) using a noise compensating mapping (NCM) on the first property set (Cl), as well as a step to establish a sufficient match between the physical object and the reference object using the second property set (Sl) and the first control value (Vl). The method is characterized by a step that generates an error measure (ERR) by quantifying the noise removed by the noise compensating mapping (NCM) using the first property set (Cl) and information derived from the noise compensating mapping (NCM). Error measure (ERR) is subsequently used for generating an authentication decision (D). Also provided is an apparatus configured to carry out the method.

    摘要: The invention relates to a system for re-encoding bitstreams for content signals. A re-encoder (101) receives a bitstream comprising e.g. an MPEG-2 encoded signal. The receiver (109) feeds the bitstream to an extraction processor (111) which extracts non-essential information from the bitstream thereby generating a reduced bitstream which is still MPEG-2 compliant. The non-essential information, which specifically may be higher frequency transform coefficients, is re-encoded in a re-encode processor (113) using a non-MPEG-2 encoding principle. The encoding may be optimised for the characteristics of the non-essential information resulting in a more efficient encoding. The re-encoded data is inserted in user data section of the reduced bit stream by a combine processor (115). Thus, an effective reduction in the size of the bitstream may be achieved. A decoder (107) may extract the re-encoded data from the user data section, regenerate the original non-essential information and insert this in the reduced bitstream. Specifically, the original bitstream may be regenerated. The approach may specifically be used for reversible bitstream watermarking that which does not increase the size of the bitstream.

    摘要: Disclosed is a method of embedding a watermark in an information signal (x(n)), such as an audio signal. The method comprises the steps of segmenting the audio signal into overlapping frames (xs(n)) using a set of analysis windows (ha(n)), calculating watermark segments (ws'(n)) for the overlapping frames, reconstructing a watermark signal (w'(n)) from the watermark segments using a set of reconstruction windows (hr(n)) which are complementary to the analysis windows, and adding the watermark signal to the information signal. The analysis and reconstruction windows may be constructed on the basis of prototype windows to fulfil predetermined complementary conditions. The analysis and reconstruction windows may be adapted to the contents of the information signal.

    摘要: A multirate filter according to the invention comprises, a) an input unit (10) for receiving an input signal (Sin) and for providing a plurality of intermediate signals (IS1, IS2) in response to said input signal, b) a filter unit (20) coupled to the input unit (10), and c) an output unit (30) coupled to the filter unit (20), for generating an output signal (Sout). The filter unit (20) comprises at least a first and a second filter module (21, 22), with a transfer function H0(z) and a transfer function H1(z) respectively, which are mutually related according to the relations H0(z)=c0(HB(z)+Mα,ψHB(z)) and, H1(z)=c1(HB(z)+Mα,ψHB(z)) wherein, Mα,ψ(HB(z))=αz-2ψ HB*(z-1), and wherein Formula (I), being the z-transform of hb[m]. The multirate filter comprises a combination unit (11) coupled to said filter modules (21, 22) for generating a first combination signal (Ssum) and a second combination signal (Sdiff).

    摘要: A watermark detection method is disclosed which is based on computing the cross-correlation between a suspect signal and a watermark. In order to be more robust against prolonged dominant signal components that adversely affect the correlation, the sequence of signal samples (61) to be correlated with the watermark is divided into sub-sequences (A(k)). The sub-sequences are processed, by a weighting function, to obtain modified sub-sequences (B(k)) that individually exhibit the original signal variations, but collectively (62) exhibit a flatter distribution of sample values. Dominant peaks in the signal are thereby substantially reduced.
