Multiple description source coding using forward error correction codes
Abstract
We present an efficient multiple description (MD) source coding scheme to achieve robust communication over unreliable channels. In contrast to the popular signal processing based methods, we propose channel coding principles to correlate the descriptions, and then use this correlation for combating channel impairments. We propose a fast, nearly optimal algorithm that aims to maximize the expected quality at the receiver given the channel state and the side channel rates. Our scheme can be used in conjunction with any source coder that is scalable, and is most easily matched to coders outputting a progressive bitstream. It has applications to the transmission of audio, images, as well as delay-constrained video signals, and can also be used to achieve reliable multicast transmission over the existing Internet with the use of simple protocols. Comparisons of our scheme on standard test images to some of the existing state-of-the-art signal processing based MD methods suggest that our simple scheme outperforms them by significant margins.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
