- Abstract
Joint source–channel coding schemes have been proven to be very effective for reliable multimedia communications. In this paper, we develop a joint source–channel coding scheme that combines the hidden Markov source (HMS) estimation and the low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes with an iterative estimation/decoding scheme. With this innovative combination, multimedia source redundancy could be accurately extracted by the hidden Markov estimation without any a priori information about the source. Moreover, the interleaver that is usually used to separate the source coding and channel coding can be avoided by exploiting the randomizing property of the LDPC codes. Furthermore, the channel decoding procedure may be implemented in parallel, resulting in good performance with a fairly low decoding complexity and delay. Simulation results have shown that the proposed scheme can achieve much better performance than the standard coding scheme over the binary input additive white Gaussian noise (BIAWGN) channels.
