Monitoring System for TV Advertisement Using Watermark

워터마크를 이용한 TV방송 광고모니터링 시스템

In this paper, it is implemented the monitoring system for TV advertisement using video watermark. The functions of an advertisement monitoring system are automatically monitoring for the time, length, and index of the on-air advertisement, saving the log data, and reporting the monitoring result. The performance of the video watermark used in this paper is tested for TV advertisement monitoring. This test includes LAB test and field test. LAB test is done in laboratory environment and field test in actually broadcasting environment. LAB test includes PSNR, distortion measure in image, and the watermark detection rate in the various attack environment such as AD/DA(analog to digital and digital to analog) conversion, noise addition, and MPEG compression The result of LAB test is good for the TV advertisement monitoring. KOBACO and SBS are participated in the field test. The watermark detection rate is 100% in both the real-time processing and the saved file processing. The average deviation of the watermark detection time is 0.2 second, which is good because the permissible average error is 0.5 second.
