In this paper, an algorithm for digital image watermarking which utilizes the hybridization technique is presented. The hybrid technique is formulated by combining the Redundant Wavelet Transform (RDWT) with Fractional Fourier Transform (FrFT) and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD). In this technique, watermark information is embedded in the low frequency band of Redundant Wavelet Transform. To increase the robustness, FrFT is implemented on low frequency coefficients of RDWT. Experimental results have been demonstrated on the basis of Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR), Correlation Coefficient (CC), and Gradient Magnitude Similarity Deviation (GMSD). A comparable improvement is witnessed from the results in terms of qualitative and quantitative analysis. The experimental results prove to be robust against various image processing and geometrical attacks applied on the standard test images.
