  1. 1. Source-Channel Coding in Networks

    Author : Niklas Wernersson; Mikael Skoglund; Geoffrey Chan; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; source coding; channel coding; joint source-channel coding; bandwidth expansion; distributed source coding; multiple description coding; soft decoding; Telecommunication; Telekommunikation;

    Abstract : The aim of source coding is to represent information as accurately as possible using as few bits as possible and in order to do so redundancy from the source needs to be removed. The aim of channel coding is in some sense the contrary, namely to introduce redundancy that can be exploited to protect the information when being transmitted over a nonideal channel. READ MORE

  2. 2. On error-robust source coding with image coding applications

    Author : Tomas Andersson; Mikael Skoglund; Astrid Lundmark; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; source coding; channel coding; joint source-channel coding; multiple description coding; image coding; vector quantization; channel optimized vector quantization; Telecommunication; Telekommunikation;

    Abstract : This thesis treats the problem of source coding in situations where the encoded data is subject to errors. The typical scenario is a communication system, where source data such as speech or images should be transmitted from one point to another. A problem is that most communication systems introduce some sort of error in the transmission. READ MORE

  3. 3. Source-channel coding for wireless networks

    Author : Niklas Wernersson; Mikael Skoglund; Norbert Goertz; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Source coding; channel coding; joint source-channel coding; multiple description coding; soft decoding; permutation codes; Telecommunication; Telekommunikation;

    Abstract : The aim of source coding is to represent information as accurately as possible using as few bits as possible and in order to do so redundancy from the source needs to be removed. The aim of channel coding is in some sense the contrary, namely to introduce redundancy that can be exploited to protect the information when being transmitted over a nonideal channel. READ MORE

  4. 4. Voronoi-Based Coding

    Author : Erik Agrell; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Voronoi diagram; linear block code; Gaussian channel; neighbor descent; nearest neighbor search algorithm; computational geometry; asymptotic theory; source coding; lattice; vector quantization; soft-decision decoding; index assignment; channel coding; complexity;

    Abstract : The performance of a digital communication system can generally be improved by increasing the number of variables being jointly coded. In this sense, it is desirable to have, e.g., higher-dimensional quantizers, longer channel codes, and more users in a multiple-access system. READ MORE

  5. 5. Source-channel coding for closed-loop control

    Author : Lei Bao; Mikael Skoglund; Karl Henrik Johansson; Fredrik Gunnarssson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; optimal control; joint source--channel coding; source-channel coding; joint coding and control; certainty equivalence; linear quadratic control; stochastic control; wireless sensor network; Telecommunication; Telekommunikation;

    Abstract : Networked embedded control systems are present almost everywhere. A recent trend is to introduce wireless sensor networks in these systems, to take advantage of the added mobility and flexibility offered by wireless solutions. In such networks, the sensor observations are typically quantized and transmitted over noisy links. READ MORE
