Real-time unequal error protection for distortion-optimal progressive image transmission
نویسندگان
چکیده
For optimal progressive transmission of an embedded image code over a noisy channel, we consider an unequal error protection strategy that minimizes the average of the expected distortion over a set of intermediate rates. In contrast to previous work, we find a near-optimal solution in real-time. For a binary symmetric channel, two state-of-the-art source coders (SPIHT and JPEG2000), and a rate-compatible punctured turbo coder as a channel coder, we compare our solution to the strategy that optimizes the end-to-end performance.

Model-based real-time progressive transmission of images over noisy channels
Many unequal error protection algorithms used in image communication systems need the operational distortion-rate (D/R) curve of the source coder whose computation is timeconsuming. We study the use of parametric models instead of the true D/R curves for wavelet-based embedded image and video coders. We propose a Weibull model and show its superiority to the previous models for real-time applic...
متن کاملEfficient Error Protection for Image and Video Transmission over Noisy Channels
This dissertation discusses several aspects and proposes improved methods of joint source-channel coding for efficient image and video data transmission over noisy channels. First, we propose a joint source-channel coding system for fractal image compression. The system allocates the available transmission bitrate between the source and the channel coders using a Lagrange multiplier optimizatio...
متن کاملProgressive image transmission applying multipath routing in mobile ad hoc networks
We investigate different allocation problem in mobile adhoc networks. The objective is to minimize the power consumption and end-to-end distortion when transmitting images. Therefore, we use progressive image coding in combination with unequal erasure protection. We investigate two different scenarios, independent packet loss events and path loss events. For both cases, the expected distortion ...
متن کاملJoint Source-channel Fractal Image Coding
We propose a joint source channel coding system for fractal image codes in which both a transmission bit rate allocation scheme and an unequal error protection strategy are considered. We express the total distortion in terms of the source distortion and the channel distortion. Then, we allocate the available total bit rate between the source code and a range of error-correcting codes using a L...
متن کاملOptimal rate allocation in progressive joint source-channel coding for image transmission over CDMA networks
This paper presents an optimal rate allocation scheme in joint sourcechannel coding (JSCC) for image transmission over CDMA networks. Our scheme first uses progressive joint source-channel codes [1] to generate operational transmission rate-distortion (TRD) functions of different multiple-access channels with different BERs. The Lagrange multiplier is then employed to set the optimal rate alloc...
