Interest in digital watermarks is growing and seems to be motivated by the need to provide copyright protection to digital works. The digital watermark should not degrade the image to a degree that interferes with its usefulness. In this paper digital watermark is decompounded into a series of binary bitplanes by bit decomposition, and each bitplane being viewed as an ordinary two-dimensional binary watermark for watermarking. The results demonstrate that the enhanced quality of the watermarked image is obtained
