Rate-compatible low-density parity-check (RC-LDPC) codes are used to provide unequal error protection for the robust and efficient transmission of JPEG2000 compressed images over noisy channels. The total bit budget is partitioned between the source and the channelcoding by using a Viterbi algorithm (VA) applied to a search trellis, and appropriate channel code rates are assigned to the source blocks. The performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated on binary symmetric channels (BSCs). Experimental results indicate that the proposed scheme compares favorably with other combined source/channel coding schemes over a variety of channel conditions and transmission bit rates. In particular, the proposed scheme outperforms similar schemes based on turbo codes and irregular repeat-accumulate codes by up to about 1.1 and 1 dB in the expected peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) of reconstructed images, respectively.

We propose a fast trellis-based rate-allocation algorithm for robust transmission of progressively coded images over noisy channels. The algorithm, which is an improved version of a similar algorithm by Banister et al., is based on the application of the Viterbi algorithm to a search trellis. This trellis is a substantially trimmed version of the one used by Banister et al.. The proposed algorithm is applied to images encoded by the set partitioning in hierarchical trees and the Joint Photographers Expert Group 2000 for transmission over binary symmetric channels. For different total bit budgets and channel parameters, speed-up factors of up to about three orders of magnitude are achieved.

A general joint source-channel rate allocation scheme for a dependent video coding environment is presented. It is assumed that the source coders rely on motion-compensated prediction, and thus error propagation will contribute significantly to the degradation of the reconstructed video. The rate allocation methodology is based upon generation of operational distortion-rate characteristics. In order to reduce computational complexity, these surfaces and the channel code performance are modeled. An analytic method for computing optimal rate allocation across frames in a video sequence is then introduced. Comparisons are made between equal error protection and unequal error protection over video frames. Results are shown for H.263 compressed video used in conjunction with rate-compatible punctured convolutional codes.

We propose a distortion optimal rate allocation algorithm for robust transmission of embedded bitstreams over noisy channels. The algorithm is based on the backward application of a Viterbi-like algorithm to a search trellis, and can be applied to both scenarios of fixed and variable channel packet length problems, referred to as FPP and VPP, respectively. For the VPP, the complexity of the algorithm is comparable to the welt-known dynamic programming approach of Chande and Farvardin. For the FPP, where no low-complexity algorithm is known, the complexity of the proposed algorithm is O(N-2), where N is the number of transmitted packets.

In this paper, we show how the Gaussian mixture modeling framework used to develop efficient source encoding schemes can be further exploited to model source statistics during channel decoding in an iterative framework to develop an effective joint source-channel decoding scheme. The joint probability density function (PDF) of successive source frames is modeled as a Gaussian mixture model (GMM). Based on previous work, the marginal source statistics provided by the GMM is used at the encoder to design a low-complexity memoryless source encoding scheme. The source encoding scheme has the specific advantage of providing good estimates to the probability of occurrence of a given source code-point based on the GMM. The proposed iterative decoding procedure works with any channel code whose decoder can implement the soft-output Viterbi algorithm that uses a priori information (APRI-SOVA) or the BCJR algorithm to provide extrinsic information on each source encoded bit. The source decoder uses the GMM model and the channel decoder output to provide a priori information back to the channel decoder. Decoding is done in an iterative manner by trading extrinsic information between the source and channel decoders. Experimental results showing improved decoding performance are provided in the application of speech spectrum parameter compression and communication.
