The host data that the watermark is embedded into is one-dimensional and non-white following a specific probability model. The analysis performed involves theoretical evaluation of the statistics of the Fourier coefficients and the design of an optimal detector for multiplicative watermark embedding. Finally experimental results are presented in order to show the performance of the proposed detector versus that of the correlator detector. Keywords and phrases Fourier transform watermarking detector signal processing. 1. INTRODUCTION The risk of illegal copying reproduction and distribution of copyrighted multimedia material is becoming more threatening with the all-digital evolving solutions adopted by content providers system designers and users. Thus copyright watermark protection of digital data is an essential requirement for multimedia distribution. Robust watermarks can offer a copyright protection mechanism for digital media. The watermark is a signal that contains information about the copyright owner and it is embedded permanently in the multimedia data. It introduces imperceptible content changes that can be detected by a detection program. Robustness is a very important property of the watermarking scheme. The watermarks must be robust to distortions such as those caused .
