Abstract
In this proposed system of audio steganography we have implemented a new scheme based on mel frequency components. The mel frequency cepstrum coefficients are used for finding the unique feature audio data in audio file. The returned features provide us with highly robust and high end features with low invariance. We have used this property of MFCC in order to detect high bandwidth free space location in the sound data and have embedded the encrypted watermark image data into these MFCC components. The proposed scheme works to increase the PSNR values and reduce the error rate of hiding the data in the image and thus improves the sound quality and makes it look original. The effect of MFCC is positive as the watermark extracted from this proposed scheme shows high correlation to the original watermark and also the resistance towards various attacks has also been improved, the attacks degrade the watermark due to high payload or bigger watermark size, the probability of extraction of watermark or steganographic data becomes higher
