Trellis-Based Source and Channel Coding

摘要

This thesis concerns the efficient transmission of digital data, such as digitized sounds or images, from a source to its destination. To make the best use of the limited capacity of the source-destination channel, a source coder is used to delete the less significant information. To correct the occurring transmission errors, a channel coder is used. Efficient techniques for source and channel coding, based on trellises, are respectively investigated in Part I and Part II of this thesis. (Copyright (c) 1994 by Renatus Josephus van der Vleuten.)
