This paper proposes a full fidelity watermarking on JPEG bitstreams. That is, without a designated decoder/player, the watermarked bitstream can be decompressed to the original one. To this end, the scheme modifies the JPEG Huffman tables and the bitstream synchronically according to the watermark....
