Rate allocation for Markov model aided convolutional coding of vector quantized image data

This thesis proposes an optimally rate allocated image transmission system that uses Vector Quantization (VQ) for source coding, and a family of variable rate Punctured Convolutional Codes (PCCs) for channel coding. At the receiver, we apply the source aided channel decoding technique known as Ma...
