Multiple Description Image Coding: A New Efficient and Low Complexity Approach for Wireless Applications

Overview This paper describes a new efficient and simple multiple description image coding system for the reliable communication of images in wireless communication systems. This system uses the inherent redundancy in an image to create several balanced descriptions. Each description is coded using a minimum complexity JPEG image coder and at the decoder, based on the number of received descriptions, an image with different qualities is reconstructed. The simulation results indicate the good performance of this method, particularly for wireless applications.

Quocirca's Straight Talking: A game of two halves

The idea is that physical images are not actually held - instead, a model or a description of an image is held. The problem is you soon end up with many images of different applications and different application versions.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change.
