In set-membership filtering (SMF) based parametric watermarking, linear predictor (LP) coefficients of the original speech are modified subject to an objective fidelity constraint. SMF is used to obtain sets of allowable parameter perturbations (i.e., watermarks) subject to a constraint on the error between the watermarked and original material. This paper discusses the robustness of SMF based watermarking to filtering, quantization and combination attacks. An important consideration in watermark robustness is the energy of the watermark signal (difference between watermarked and original signals). The most robust watermark is obtained from perturbed LP coefficients at the boundary of the membership set.

To improve basic converter characteristics, the architecture features redundant output thermometer code. The main concept offers two modes of operation. Each mode generates a different thermometer output, i.e. a different switching sequence for the DAC MSB thermometer analog elements. This results in two different transfer characteristics of the whole DAC for the same mismatch errors of its elements. After on-chip or off-chip measurements, the more linear transfer characteristic can be selected. In this way, chip yield is improved and the design requirements can be relaxed.
