Source and Channel Coding of Images for Noisy Channels

Finally, methods for introducing an adjustable amount of source redundancy are explored in the context of erasure channels. The erasure channel can be considered an abstraction of an arbitrary physical channel as long as reliable error detection is possible, so the methods are broadly applicable. A multistage coding structure is proposed which offers much flexibility, even in terms of the underlying compression algorithms, as well as low complexity. Extensions of multiple description scalar quantizers in combination with erasure correcting codes are proposed as another method.
