چکیده

Compression systems of real signals (images, video, audio) generate sources of information with diierent levels of priority which are then encoded with variable length codes (VLC). This paper addresses the issue of robust transmission of such VLC encoded heterogeneous sources over error-prone channels. VLCs are very sensitive to channel noise: when some bits are altered, synchronization losses can occur at the receiver. This paper describes a new family of codes, called multiplexed codes, that allow to connne the de-synchronization phenomenon to low priority data while allowing to reach asymptotically the entropy bound for both (low and high priority) sources. The idea consists in creating xed length codes for high priority information and in using the inherent redundancy to describe low priority data, hence the name multiplexed codes. Theoritical and simulation results reveal a very high error resilience at almost no cost in compression eeciency.

Cet article traite du probllme de la transmission de telles sources sur des canaux sujets erreurs. Les codes longueur variable sont trrs sensibles au bruit de transmission: lorsque des inversions de bits se produisent, la synchronisation est perdue au ddcodeur. Une nouvelle famille de codes, les codes multiplexxs, permettent de connner le phhnommne de ddsynchronisation des donnnes moins prioritaires, tout en permettant d'atteindre la borne entropique pour l'ensemble des donnnes. Le principe consiste crrer un code longueur xe pour la source de donnnes prioritaires et d'utiliser la redondance intrinssque de ce code pour ddcrire les donnnes moins prioritaires. Les rrsultats de simulations et thhoriques ddmontrent une rrsistance aux erreurs trrs importante pour une perte d'eecacitt en compression trrs faible.

An approach to fault detection and correction in design of systems using of Turbo ‎codes‎

We present an approach to design of fault tolerant computing systems. In this paper, a technique is employed that enable the combination of several codes, in order to obtain flexibility in the design of error correcting codes. Code combining techniques are very effective, which one of these codes are turbo codes. The Algorithm-based fault tolerance techniques that to detect errors rely on the c...

Assessment of Weighting Functions Used in Oppermann Codes in Polyphase Pulse Compression Radars

Polyphase is a common class of pulse compression waveforms in the radar systems. Oppermann code is one of the used codes with polyphone pattern. After compression, this code has little tolerant against Doppler shift in addition to its high side lobe level. This indicates that the use of Oppermann code is an unsuitable scheme to radars applications. This paper shows that the use of amplitude wei...

Unequal Error Protection for Robust Video Transmission Using Multiplexed Codes

An error resilient video coding scheme based on unequal error protection over error prone channels is proposed. Due to the sensitivity of VLC to channel errors, a single bit error can cause loss of synchronization at the receiver, leading to catastrophic degradation of image quality. Multiplexed codes are an effective approach to combat losses of synchronization. In this paper, multiplexed code...

Frequency-Directed Run-Length (FDR) Codes with Application to System-on-a-Chip Test Data Compression

We showed recently that Golomb codes can be used for efficiently compressing system-on-a-chip test data. We now present a new class of variable-to-variable-length compression codes that are designed using the distributions of the runs of 0s in typical test sequences. We refer to these as frequency-directed run-length (FDR) codes. We present experimental results for the ISCAS 89 benchmark circui...
