Abstract :
In this paper we analyze the effect that the application of channel coding produces on the performance of the watermark detection and decoding tests for copyright protection of images. Detector structures are derived for both tests and analytical bounds and approximations are obtained for the bit error rate (BER) and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) associated with the watermark decoding and detection tests when block codes are employed. The extension to other families of codes is discussed. Finally, the analytical expressions are contrasted with experimental results in several cases of interest
