ABSTRACT
In this paper, co-hardware simulation of Image Watermarking has been performed using Xilinx System Gen-
erator and VIRTEX 6 target device on ML605 FPGA Board. In Watermarking, valuable information can be
hidden in the set of digital media by modifying the graphic contents. Here, Watermarking is performed in DWT
domain after scaling of watermark data. Watermarking is implemented in MATLAB Simulink with Xilinx
System Generator toolbox. Then, Co-hardware simulation is performed using VIRTEX 6 device on ML605
Board. The visual results of both simulation and Co- hardware simulation models are achieved and it is ob-
served that the Co- hardware simulation results are better. The device utilization during the implementation of
Co-hardware simulation of watermarking process on ML605 Board is compared with the implementation on
LX240 Board. The ML605 implementation shows a requirement of smaller number of components as com-
pared to other researchers work.
Keywords: Image Watermarking, DWT, Scaling, Xilinx System Generator(XSG), Co-hardware Simulation
I. INTRODUCTION
In this paper, hardware co-simulation of image watermarking is performed using MATLAB and Xilinx System
Generator on ML605 board with Virtex 6 as the target device. Hardware setup is implemented using either DSP’s
or FPGA’s. Since design flexibility with FPGA is more than DSP, it is more feasible to implement such system
with FPGA for optimized performance as discussed[1] by Ana Toledo Moreo et al.
Roy, Li and Shoshan[2] have done hardware implementation of the Digital Watermarking system for compressed
video authentication. The authors worked on the real-time implementation of invisible watermarking using FPGA.
Karthigaikumar, Anumol and Baskaran[3] as well as Korrapati, Nelakudit and Mandhala[4] worked on watermark-
ing using Simulink block in MATLAB and then the algorithm is converted into Hardware Description Language
(HDL) using Xilinx System Generator tool. The algorithm is prototyped in Virtex-6 (vsx315tff1156-2) FPGA.
Joshi, Mishra and Patrikar [5] worked on real time implementation of Digital Watermarking for Image and Video.
They made hardware implementation of digital watermarking using DCT domain. Bhaisare et al. [6] implemented
real time method for watermarking system. They embed invisible, semi fragile watermark information into com-
pressed video streams using DCT. Also, Hajjaji, Mohamed Ali, et al. [7] worked on Xilinx System Generator and
they used HAAR DWT for watermarking. This model was implemented on ML507 Evaluation Platform which is
based on the Virtex-5 FPGA using Xilinx System Generator tool. Saidaniet al. [8] worked on the co-hardware
simulation for video watermarking. The design was implemented using a Spartan3 device (3S200PQ208) then a
Virtex-II Pro (xc2vp7- 6ff672). Shivdeep, Ghosh and Rahaman [9] performed FPGA and ASIC implementation of
color image watermarking. The use of pseudo noise code enhances the security of watermarking scheme. Xilinx
Spartan 3E FPGA kit with XC3S500E device is used for performing the task. Xilinx ISE 14.7 project navigator
along with XST synthesis tool and ISim simulator are used for interfacing, RTL synthesis and simulation, respec-
tively. Pexaras, Karybali and Kalligero [10]presented image and video watermarking schemes for low-cost appli-
cations. They presented FPGA implementation of robust invisible watermarking using spatial domain. In this
method, area calculated for blocks consumption is small as compared to existing methods as shown by the authors.
