The Turbo Principle in Joint Source-Channel Coding
نویسنده
چکیده
The turbo principle (iterative decoding between component decoders) is a general scheme, which we apply to joint source-channel decoding. As a realistic (e.g. speech parameter coding) example we discuss joint source-channel decoding for auto-correlated continuousamplitude source samples. At the transmitter the source samples are quantized and their indexes are appropriately mapped onto bitvectors. Afterwards the bits are interleaved and channel-encoded; an AWGN channel is assumed for transmission. The auto-correlations of the source samples act as implicit outer channel codes that are serially concatenated with the inner explicit channel code. Thus, by applying the turbo principle, we can perform iterative decoding at the receiver. As an example, we will show that with a proper bit mapping for a 5-bit quantizer iterative source-channel decoding saves up to 2 dB in channel SNR or 8 dB in source SNR for an auto-correlated Gaussian source.

متن کاملJoint Source-Channel Turbo Techniques for Discrete-Valued Sources: From Theory to Practice
The principles which have been prevailing so far for designing communication systems rely on Shannon’s source and channel coding separation theorem [1]. This theorem states that source and channel optimum performance bounds can be approached as close as desired by designing independently the source and channel coding strategies. However, this theorem holds only under asymptotic conditions, wher...
متن کاملThe Turbo Principle in Joint Source Channel Decoding of Variable Length Codes
The ’turbo’ principle has been widely applied to various detection/decoding problems in recent years. Here we show how the general idea can be extended to a communication scheme where a variable length code is used for data compression followed by a channel code to protect the data against channel errors. Iterations are performed between the channel decoder and the decoder for the variable leng...
متن کاملNear-Capacity Joint Source-Channel Coding for Adaptive Video Transmission over Rayleigh Fading Channel
In this paper we propose an adaptive Joint Source and Channel Coding (JSCC) associated with adequate modulation algorithm to provide a near channel capacity video transmission rate to achieve better system performance. In the proposed algorithm we apply MPEG-2 video coding scheme, and turbo channel coding technique as well as BPSK/QPSK for modulation method. Rates assigned to MPEG-2 source codi...
متن کاملThe turbo-fountain
Reliable wireless broadcast with asynchronous data access based on fountain coding is investigated. We review the traditional problem formalisation for fountain codes operating on erasure channels, and we generalise the problem formalisation to more general channels. We introduce a novel type of rateless codes based on the Turbo Principle: the Turbo-Fountain. The Turbo-Fountain is able to consi...
