Analysis of Matrix Embedding with Error Correction Capabilities

Abstract

Matrix embedding with error correction capabilities is analyzed in this paper. We try to give an answer to the question, “matrix embedding (ME) first or error correction encoding (EC) first, which one is better?” To this end, two feasible frameworks are designed and theoretically analyzed. Bounds of embedding payloads and efficiencies are presented corresponding to different distortions and error correction capabilities. Results show that the framework of “matrix embedding first” has a better performance.
