Abstract
The paper presents a new robust video watermarking method. Its main idea consists in adding temporal sinusoidal sequences to each pixel of the video signal. The two-dimensional field of their phases corresponds to the watermark image. Simple and fast algorithms for embedding and extracting watermarks are described. The results of experimental studies demonstrate the high watermark extraction quality, robustness to some attacks, including temporal desynchronization, and high visual quality of the protected video.
