Abstract: A new approach to data embedding within ITU G.722 and ITU G.711 based upon the method of types and universal classification is disclosed. A secondary data sequence is embedded in the original (host) data stream using the method of types. The embedded data is extracted using a type-based universal receiver, with or without the use of a key. The choice of type and rate for the embedded data is based upon an analysis of portions of the original ITU G.722 or ITU G.711 coded data stream. The universal receiver learns the type from the received data alone, and hence, there is no side information required as in previous data embedding techniques. The embedding process and the receiver may both be data adaptive, so the original data stream can be reconstructed at the decoder without error.
