LFSR Based Watermark and Address Generator for Digital Image Watermarking SRAM

Abstract

 In digital image watermarking authentication methods and techniques, the original image will be watermarked with a text, image, audio or any signature. To overcome the uneven and enormous distribution of multimedia content in the internet, we propose a new method of watermarking technique using pseudo random number generator LFSR (LinearFeedback Shift Register). Two LFSR based implementations of pseudo random number generator are designed for embedding and generating an address in image watermarking applications are presented. The first LFSR is axa size bit array watermark generator, which will be embedded in the bxb size bit array original image. After embedding, the watermarked bit array image will be stored in the image watermarking SRAM (Static Random Access Memory) memory location using a cxc size bit array memory address location which will be generated by the second LFSR. In our paper we used LFSR, to generate a unique random number watermark array for the original image. The embedded watermarked image will contain thecombinations of LFSR axa size array bit stream in such a way that, if this bit stream doesn’t match with the LFSR used at the watermark extraction process, the watermark won’t be revealed, providing a secured authentication to the original image. In watermark extraction process, we used the same LFSR of axa size bit array and extracted the watermark bit stream. Our proposed method of watermarking is simulated and synthesized using Active-HDL Version 7.2SE design tools and ModelSim XE III 6.4b. Our proposed method showed better results compared to other conventional methods of digital image watermarking.
