商品描述

An uncoded multimedia transmission (UMT) system is one that skips quantization and entropy coding in compression and all subsequent binary operations, including channel coding and bit-to-symbol mapping of modulation. By directly transmitting non-binary symbols with amplitude modulation, the uncoded system avoids the annoying cliff effect observed in the coded transmission system. This advantage makes uncoded transmission more suited to both unicast in varying channel conditions and multicast to heterogeneous users.

Particularly, in the first part of Uncoded Multimedia Transmission, we consider how to improve the efficiency of uncoded transmission and make it on par with coded transmission. We then address issues and challenges regarding how to better utilize temporal and spatial correlation of images and video in the uncoded transmission, to achieve the optimal transmission performance. Next, we investigate the resource allocation problem for uncoded transmission, including subchannel, bandwidth and power allocation. By properly allocating these resources, uncoded transmission can achieve higher efficiency and more robust performance. Subsequently, we consider the image and video delivery in MIMO broadcasting networks with diverse channel quality and varying numbers of antennas across receivers. Finally, we investigate the cases where uncoded transmission can be used in conjunction with digital transmission for a balanced efficiency and adaptation capability.

This book is the very first monograph in the general area of uncoded multimedia transmission written in a self-contained format. It addresses both the fundamentals and the applications of uncoded transmission. It gives a systematic introduction to the fundamental theory and concepts in this field, and at the same time, also presents specific applications that reveal the great potential and impacts for the technologies generated from the research in this field. By concentrating several important studies and developments currently taking place in the field of uncoded transmission in a single source, this book can reduce the time and cost required to learn and improve skills and knowledge in the field.

The authors have been actively working in this field for years, and this book is the final essence of their years of long research in this field. The book may be used as a collection of research notes for researchers in this field, a reference book for practitioners or engineers, as well as a textbook for a graduate advanced seminar in this field or any related fields. The references collected in this book may be used as further reading lists or references for the readers.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

無編碼多媒體傳輸(UMT)系統是一種跳過壓縮中的量化和熵編碼以及所有後續的二進制操作(包括通道編碼和調製的位元到符號映射)的系統。通過直接使用振幅調製傳輸非二進制符號,無編碼系統避免了編碼傳輸系統中出現的令人困擾的懸崖效應。這個優勢使得無編碼傳輸更適合於在不同通道條件下的單播和異構用戶的多播。

特別是在《無編碼多媒體傳輸》的第一部分中,我們考慮如何提高無編碼傳輸的效率,使其與編碼傳輸相媲美。然後,我們討論了關於如何更好地利用圖像和視頻的時間和空間相關性在無編碼傳輸中,以實現最佳的傳輸性能的問題和挑戰。接下來,我們研究了無編碼傳輸的資源分配問題,包括子通道、頻寬和功率分配。通過合理分配這些資源,無編碼傳輸可以實現更高的效率和更強大的性能。隨後,我們考慮了在具有不同通道質量和接收器之間變化的天線數的MIMO廣播網絡中的圖像和視頻傳遞。最後,我們研究了無編碼傳輸可以與數字傳輸結合使用以實現平衡的效率和適應能力的情況。

這本書是關於無編碼多媒體傳輸的第一本專著,以自成一體的形式撰寫。它既涵蓋了無編碼傳輸的基礎知識,也介紹了具體的應用,展示了從這一領域的研究中產生的技術的巨大潛力和影響。通過將目前在無編碼傳輸領域中正在進行的幾項重要研究和發展集中在一個來源中,這本書可以減少學習和提高該領域技能和知識所需的時間和成本。

作者多年來一直在這一領域積極工作,這本書是他們多年來在這一領域的研究的最終精華。這本書可以作為該領域研究人員的研究筆記集,從業人員或工程師的參考書,以及該領域或任何相關領域的研究生高級研討會的教材。本書收集的參考文獻可以作為進一步閱讀清單或讀者的參考資料。
