Abstract
Instead of using product codes for progressive image transmission over noisy fading channels, we extend, in this paper, a recently proposed image transmission method by the authors by interleaving each coded packet to fading channels so that the effect of burst error can be converted into the random bit errors. As a result, the design of unequal error protection for fading channel can be unified with the rate compatible punctured turbo (RCPT) codes protection only. We show that a better performance than the product code protection can be obtained for a given channel condition. Furthermore, the proposed method is also insensitive to the channel variation. Some interesting technical components including a Genetic Algorithm (GA) based rate allocation method, using RS codes to break the error floor of the turbo codes are also discussed in the paper. The advantages of the proposed methods have been demonstrated with extensive simulation results.

Efficient rate allocation for progressive image transmission via unequal error protection over finite-state Markov channels
This paper proposes a unified framework for addressing progressive image transmission over noisy channels based on the finite-state Markov channel (FSMC) model. FSMC models are simple yet general enough to model binary symmetric, Gilbert-Elliott, and ...
Progressive Transmission of Images Over Fading Channels Using Rate-Compatible LDPC Codes
In this paper, we propose a combined source/channel coding scheme for transmission of images over fading channels. The proposed scheme employs rate-compatible low-density parity-check codes along with embedded image coders such as JPEG2000 and set ...
