Error correcting codes used for distributed source coding (DSC) generally assume a random distribution of errors. However, in certain DSC applications, prediction of the error distribution is possible and thus this assumption fails, resulting in a sub-optimal performance. This letter considers the construction of rate-adaptive Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) codes where the edges of the variable nodes receiving unreliable information are distributed evenly among all the check nodes. Simulation results show that the proposed codes can reduce the gap to the theoretical bounds by up to 56% compared to traditional codes.

Wireless multimedia sensor networks (WMSNs) emerge as a solution in wireless unattended video surveillance scenarios. The G-E-M methodology was recently introduced by Czarlinska et al. to address the problem providing protection to visual wireless surveillance systems in the presence of another hostile sensing system. This work builds upon the G-E-M framework by introducing pre- and post-processing stages that reduce decoding errors and visual noise as well as allowing the effective control of bitrate.

This paper studies the problem of correlated data gathering in wireless sensor networks. For a maximum network utility, an efficient data capture and transmission framework is proposed for correlated sources, where localized S-W sourcecoding, network coding based flow control and opportunistic routing are jointly optimized. To increase the throughput and guarantee the decodability simultaneously, a dynamic network coding strategy is proposed, with which the intermediate node can easily decide whether to make a combination among the incoming flows. Also, an opportunistic routing approach is presented, which adopts a new metric (minimum congestion price) for forwarding node selection and results in a maximum utility benefit for the sensor nodes. Through the Lagrange dual and gradient approach, a fully distributed algorithm is represented. And the convergence and performance are validated by the numerical results.

A distributedcoding algorithm is presented for compression of wavelet-transformed data. Data structures based on zerotrees are exploited for efficient compression of the significance map of wavelet coefficients. The coefficients are scanned in two stages, with a significance pass and refinement pass, similar to the SPIHT algorithm. The bits resulting from these passes are Slepian-Wolf coded using an LDPC syndrome code selected from a bank of available codes. A key realization is that, for each bitplane of the wavelet coefficients, the significance pass of the source data can be synchronized with that of the side information. This allows distributed compression of the significance pass. This is substantially different from previous mixed approaches in which the refinement pass was Slepian-Wolf coded, but the significance pass was coded independently. Rate-distortion results are presented for images from the ALOS AVNIR-2 multispectral dataset and compared against those obtained with SPIHT and JPEG2000.

distributed compression or distributed source coding (DSC) refers to separate compression and joint decompression of multiple correlated sources. Though theoretical foundations were set almost forty years ago, driven by applications such as wireless video surveillance and wireless multimedia communications, DSC has become and still is a very active research area with interest from both academia and industry. While the first decade of this century has seen massive progress in code designs and achievable bounds, recent work is focussed on applications and solving practical DSC limitations such as large codeword size, accurate correlation estimation, etc. The goal of this paper is to provide an overview of the exciting trends and novel applications such as security, remote sensing, wireless data gathering of correlated data, biomedical imaging and infotainment, that DSC makes possible.

This paper considers the design of efficient quantizers for a robust distributed source coding system. The information is encoded at independent terminals and transmitted across separate channels, any of which may fail. The scenario subsumes a wide range of source and source-channel coding/quantization problems, including multiple descriptions and distributed source coding. Greedy descent methods depend heavily on initialization, and the presence of abundant (high density of) "poor" local optima on the cost surface strongly motivates the use of a global design algorithm. We propose a deterministic annealing approach for the design of all components of a generic robust distributed source coding system. Our approach avoids many poor local optima, is independent of initialization, and does not make any simplifying assumption on the underlying source distribution. Simulation results demonstrate a wide spread in the performance of greedy Lloyd-based algorithms, and considerable gains are achieved by using the proposed deterministic annealing approach.

sourcecoding with correlated decoder side information is considered. We impose the practical constraint that the encoder be unaware of even the statistical dependencies between source and side information. Two classes of rate-adaptive distributedsource codes, both based on low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes, are developed and their design is studied. Specific realizations are shown to be better than alternatives of linear encoding and decoding complexity. The proposed rate-adaptive LDPC accumulate (LDPCA) codes and sum LDPC accumulate (SLDPCA) codes (of length 6336 bits) perform within 10% and 5% of the Slepian-Wolf bound in the moderate and high rate regimes, respectively.

This correspondence considers the problem of distributed source coding of multiple sources over a network with multiple receivers. Each receiver seeks to reconstruct all of the original sources. The work by Ho et al. 2004 demonstrates that random network coding can solve this problem at the potentially high cost of jointly decoding the source and the network code. Motivated by complexity considerations we consider the performance of separate source and network codes. Previous work by Effros et al. 2003 demonstrates the failure of separation between source and network codes for nonmulticast networks. We demonstrate that failure for multicast networks. We study networks with capacity constraints on edges. It is shown that the problem with two sources and two receivers is always separable. Counterexamples are presented for other cases.
