This document proposes an improved spread spectrum watermarking technique to withstand geometric deformations. The technique uses Direct Sequence Code Division Multiple Access (DS-CDMA) and embeds the watermark by modulating a pseudo-random noise sequence. It normalizes the cover image before embedding to achieve robustness against geometric attacks like rotation and scaling. The watermark is extracted using correlation between the watermarked image and pseudo-random noise sequence. Experimental results show the technique achieves a low bit error rate under various geometric attacks when the watermark strength is increased.
