2. 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

4. 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

5. 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

6. 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

7. 5. A Universal Source Coding Perspective on PPM

   Author : Jan Åberg; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; coding with side information; multinomial estimation; maximum probability codes; MDL estimation; PPM; hierarchical source coding; universal source coding; text compression; lossless data compression; Automation; robotics; control engineering; Automatiska system; robotteknik; reglerteknik;

   Abstract : The PPM (Prediction by Partial Matching) family of text compression algorithms has several members that have shown to be very efficient in practice. This thesis treats PPM algorithms from an information-theoretical point of view, based on results and methods from universal source coding theory. READ MORE
