This paper presents a robust method of audio watermarking in the wavelet domain. In this method, the watermarked data is encrypted, then combined with a synchronization code and embedded in low- frequency coefficients of wavelet transform. In this paper two techniques of quantization are employed for data embedding process. The magnitude of quantization step and embedding strength is adaptively determined according to the characteristics of the human auditory system (HAS). Therefore data embedding distortion is imperceptible for human ears. The experimental results show that the proposed watermarking scheme is transparence and very robust against common attacks such as additive Gaussian noise, low-pass filtering, resampling, requantization, shifting, cropping and MPEG compression.
