摘要:
A watermark signal provider comprises a time-frequency-domain waveform provider to provide time-domain waveforms for a plurality of frequency subbands. The time-frequency-domain waveform provider is configured to map a given value of a time-frequency-domain representation onto a bit shaping function, a temporal extension of which is longer than a bit interval, such that there is a temporal overlap between bit shaped functions provided for temporally subsequent values of the time-frequency-domain representation of the same frequency subband. A time-domain waveform of a given frequency subband contains a plurality of bit shaped functions provided for temporally subsequent values of the time-frequency-domain representation. The water mark signal provider further has a time-domain waveform combiner.

A watermark signal provider provides a watermark signal suitable for being hidden in an audio signal when the watermark signal is added to the audio signal, such that the watermark signal represents watermark data. The watermark signal provider includes a psychoacoustical processor for determining a masking threshold of the audio signal; and a modulator for generating the watermark signal from a superposition of sample-shaping functions spaced apart from each other at a sample time interval of a time-discrete representation of the watermark data, each sample-shaping function being amplitude-weighted with a respective sample of the time-discrete representation, multiplied by a respective amplitude weight depending on the masking threshold, the modulator being configured such that the sample time interval is shorter than a time extension of the sample-shaping functions; and the respective amplitude weight also depends on samples of the time-discrete representation neighboring the respective sample in time.

A watermark decoder includes a time-frequency-domain representation provider, a memory unit, a synchronization determiner and a watermark extractor. The time-frequency-domain representation provider provides a frequency-domain representation of the watermarked signal for a plurality of time blocks. The memory unit stores the frequency-domain representation of the watermarked signal for a plurality of time blocks. Further, the synchronization determiner identifies an alignment time block based on the frequency-domain representation of the watermarked signal of a plurality of time blocks. The watermark extractor provides binary message data based on stored frequency-domain representations of the watermarked signal of time blocks temporally preceding the identified alignment time block considering a distance to the identified alignment time block.
