This paper studies the transmission of watermarked images on wireless SC-FDMA systems. Different watermarking schemes are provided in this frame work for security and authentication purposes.SC-FDMA is accomplished for broadband wireless communications, for its advantages of low PAPR and low sensitivity to carrier frequency offsets. The SC-FDMA system is used for communication as it is the uplink standard in coefficient mobile communication system. In this paper, two types of equalizers(MMSE and ZF) is used to mitigate the effect of channel fading and noise at different subcarriers mapping schemes(localized and distributed).Watermark extraction is performed at the receiver and an evaluation process for the quality of extracted watermarks is performed. Simulation experiments were established in MATLAB program R2014a version. Simulation results approved that the interleaved system provides better performance than that of the localized systems. In addition the system performance has better enhancement when using the ZF equalizer than the MMSE equalizer. The quality of the received of extracted watermarks is investigated with different metrics like PSNR, correlation coefficient (Cr) , SSIM and the histogram . Simulation results also demonstrate an efficient of image clarity at extraction process.
