A Novel Blind Video Watermarking Scheme for Access Control Using Complex Wavelets

A content-dependent watermarking scheme for access control of digital video is presented. The watermark is embedded in selected complex wavelet coefficients of every frame. Robustness to geometric attacks is guaranteed since complex wavelets provide shift invariance and good directional selectivity.
