1. A system for encoding of digital watermark information in a signal, comprising:

  • a window identifier for identifying a sample window in the signal;

    an interval calculator for determining a quantization interval of the sample window, where the quantization interval is used to quantize normalized window samples; and

    a sampler for normalizing the sample window to provide normalized samples, where the normalized samples conform to a limited range of values that are proportional to real sample values and comprise a representation of the real sample values with a resolution higher than the real range of values, and where the normalized values can be divided by the quantization interval into distinct quantization levels.
