LT codes are convenient and popular kind of rateless codes that could easily tolerate different patterns of loss in erasure channels. In this paper an LT code with unequal packet protection (UPP) property is proposed. The proposed code could provide unequal packet recovery to any importance-sorted data packets. Simulation results indicate the enhanced performance of the suggested scheme and its ability to increase the probability of early decoding of more important parts of data rather than the rest. Also it is shown that the proposed scheme could provide comparable bit error rates in comparison to the one of the well known previous methods. The code with modified encoding graph has been utilized for transmitting of the scalable data-partitioned video stream. Simulation results also illustrate the performance of the suggested approach in early delivery of the most important parts of a video sequence.
