Description
Summary:Wireless communication of multimedia signals is often based on the transmission of source codec parameters which are protected against channel noise by channel coding. Commonly, a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is introduced in order to check for erroneous frames after error correction. If the CRC fails, a bad frame indication (BFI) flag is set which controls a codec-specific frame error concealment. This results in the substitution of complete multimedia frames by their concealed versions even if only a few parameters may be corrupted. The proposed system is based on iterative source-channel decoding. A low complexity bad parameter indication (BPI) scheme is introduced which identifies faulty decoded parameters and enables more effective parameter-individual concealment strategies. This concept may be applied to any multimedia codec (speech, audio, video, images).
