In this paper, we present a novel high bit rate LSB
% audio watermarking method. The basic idea of the
% proposed LSB algorithm is watermark embedding that
% causes minimal embedding distortion of the host audio.
% Using the proposed two-step algorithm, watermark bits
% are embedded into higher LSB layers, resulting in
% increased robustness against noise addition or MPEG
% compression. Listening tests showed that the perceptual
% quality of watermarked audio is higher in the case of the
% proposed method than in the standard LSB method.
