ABSTRACT

In the last decade, video compression standards have been improved to provide more compressed data along with better visual quality resolution. As a result, providing a security method with higher eciency coding is a priority demand. Video digital watermarking integrated with these standards is a technology that can serve this purpose. A large number of video watermarking techniques have been proposed to embed copyright marks and other information in digital video, which can later be extracted or detected. Digital video is a sequence of still images or frames. However, video watermarking techniques need to meet other requirements than those required in image watermarking schemes, such as video coding technologies, redundancy between sequences of frames and some special video attacks (Bhowmik and Abhayaratne, 2012). In addition, video watermarking techniques that use coding structure techniques as a basic component in the watermarking schemes are the primary target for the goal of integrating watermarking and compression to reduce the complexity of video watermarking processing. Therefore, integrating watermarking requires an optimal implementation of the watermarking framework at the encoder to reach that goal.
