Abstract: According to the blind extracting issues within the spread-spectrum watermark, a kind of blind extracting algorithm which could be used in the extraction of the digital audio signals was proposed. In the algorithm, wavelet transform was applied to the audio document, then the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) was used to its low-frequency coefficient. Afterwards, the fifth coefficient was got and it was used to hide the watermark information being spectrum spread. As the spread-spectrum sequence and its length were unknown during the extraction, spectrum-reprocessing and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) were introduced to estimate the spread-spectrum using in the embedding process, and the blind extraction to the spread-spectrum watermark of the given digital signal was fulfilled. The simulation results show that with unknown spread-spectrum parameter, watermark image with Normalized Coefficient (NC) of one can be extracted, and it is of strong robustness. Under the attacks of noises and low-pass filter, the accuracy rate of the estimating spread-spectrum sequence is over 90%, which guarantees the recovery of clear water mark image with normalization coefficient higher than 0.98.
