Presenting a thorough overview of bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM), this book
introduces the tools for the analysis and design of BICM transceivers. It explains in details …

This paper reviews a number of di erent approaches aiming at introducing some robustness
into source coders/decoders when the coded bit-stream is to be sent through a noisy …

The reliable transmission and processing of information bearing signals over a noisy
communication channel is at the heart of what we call communication. Information theory …

Experimental tests of Newton law put stringent constraints on potential deviations from
standard theory with ranges from the millimeter to the size of planetary orbits. Windows …

Optimal binary labelings, input distributions, and input alphabets are analyzed for the so-
called bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM) capacity, paying special attention to the low …

In linear predictive speech coding algorithms, transmission of linear predictive coding (LPC)
parameters-often transformed to the line spectrum frequencies (LSF) representation …

We provide a general treatment of optimal soft decoding for vector quantization over noisy
channels with finite memory. The main result is a recursive implementation of optimal …

This correspondence introduces an approach to the design of channel robust vector
quantizers. Design criteria are derived based on a new expression for the channel distortion …

We present an estimator-based, or soft, vector quantizer decoder for communication over a
noisy channel. The decoder is optimal according to the mean-square error criterion, and …

Vector quantization (VQ) is an effective and widely known method for low-bit-rate
communication of speech and image signals. A common assumption in the design of VQ …
