| Summary: | Audio Quran is now accessible in many websites free of charge. People
can listen online or download any verse or the complete Quran verses. The
genuineness of the sound content in those online audio Quran by principle
should remain intact. Any intentional or non-intentional alteration to the
content creates a big problem. There are reports on circulating fake sound
output of online audio Quran intended to alter with the original message
the Quran delivers and eventually create confusion. We use different audio
watermarking technique for the protection of the originality of online audio
Quran content. In this case a watermark is embedded into the bit-stream of
audio Quran. This will help in verifying any suspicious fake audio Quran in
internet. Unfortunately, there is a concern regarding this method, because
the watermark may alter with the contents of the Quran sound, this might
create more harm than good. As a result this paper aimed at watermarking
some selected short surah of audio Quran and investigates the watermarked
conditions by extensive subjective listening test. Furthermore, a model
suitable for watermarking and verifying authentic audio Quran is proposed.
The result is the combination of good watermarking technique suitable for
protecting the integrity of audio Quran and a model for verifying contains of
the audio Quran. |
