Abstract
A method to watermark an audio signal may include receiving watermark data payload information, converting the watermark data payload information into a watermark audio signal including one or more watermark messages corresponding to the watermark data payload information, and inserting the one or more watermark messages into multiple spectral channels of the audio signal, wherein each of the multiple spectral channels occupies a different frequency range, wherein bandwidth of a first spectral channel located in a first frequency region is smaller than bandwidth of a second spectral channel located in a second frequency region, and wherein bandwidth of a spectral channel, from the multiple spectral channels, is equal to a number divided by the time duration of a respective symbol, from the multiple symbols, in the spectral channel, wherein the number is in the range of 0.7 to 2.5.
