We determine analytic expressions for the performance of some low-complexity combined source-channel coding systems. The main tool used is the Hadamard transform. In particular, we obtain formulas for the average distortion of binary lattice vector quantization with affine index assignments, linear block channel coding, and a binary-symmetric channel. The distortion formulas are specialized to ...

We describe coding and modulation aspects for a channel with different kinds of a-typical noise disturbances. An example of such a channel is the powerline communication (PLC) channel, but the same noise disturbances can be observed in for instance xDSL communications. The channel is assumed to suffer from background noise, impulsive noise, narrowband noise and fading. In addition, in PLC, the ...

This work is dedicated to developing algebraic methods for channel coding. Its goal is to show that in different contexts, namely single-antenna Rayleigh fading channels, coherent and non-coherent MIMO channels, algebraic techniques can provide useful tools for building efficient coding schemes. Rotated lattice signal constellations have been proposed as an alternative for transmission over the...

The method of speech coding CELP is extensively used in much voice communication-, multimedia-, video conference and other systems. There are a lot of papers related to CELP coding characteristics improvement for a better speech quality after decoding. Most of the papers are dedicated to lower the rate of CELP coded speech transmission. One problem related to low rate CELP speech transmission w...

The combination of source coding with decoder side-information (Wyner-Ziv problem) and channel coding with encoder side-information (Gel’fand-Pinsker problem) can be optimally solved using the separation principle. In this work we show an alternative scheme for the quadratic-Gaussian case, which merges source and channel coding. This scheme achieves the optimal performance by a applying modulo-...

A new approach of reliable image and video transmission over noisy channels is proposed. For subband decomposed image and video, combined source coding and channel modulation design can achieve high compression efficiency and preferable quality. Further performance gain is obtained by multiresolution modulation as well as a bit-remapping scheme that assigns efficient mapping from each source co...
