Abstract

A two-level, hybrid-optimization scheme is proposed for rate allocation of JPEG2000(J2K)transmission over noisy channels. It combines forward error correction (FEC) and J2K errorresilience modes to minimize the expected end-to-end image distortion. Subject to a totaltarget bit rate, it forms fixed-length source packets, and can be adapted to fixed-length channel packets in a straightforward manner. The proposed scheme utilizes the source distortion-rate characteristics and the BER statistics of the available channel codes. It has complexity less than O(R2) for a specific J2K codestream, whereis the number of available channel code rates. Performance results with both RCPC and turbo codes for fixed-length sourcepackets are provided to show the effectiveness of the scheme.
