The robustness of the delivery of digital compressed video streams has always been one of the main topic of the standardization bodies to assure the Quality of the Service (QoS). The MPEG standard which is nowadays the reference for digital television defi ...
This paper addresses the problem of compact representation of a 3D scene, captured by distributed omnidirectional cameras. As the images from the sensors are likely to be correlated in most practical scenarios, we build a distributed algorithm based on cod ...
A channel model for channels with unknown state and partial state information available causally at the decoder is proposed. The model is based on arbitrarily varying channels (AVCs), and the partial state information is characterized by allowing the decod ...

This paper presents an unequal error protection scheme for atomic image bitstreams. An atomic stream is the encoded version of a digital image, which is represented as a sum of bi-dimensional functions, as typically generated by Matching Pursuit encoders. ...
Given uncertainty in environment, a conservative approach is to design for the worst case, leading to a game-theoretic situation where the environment is controlled by an adversary. However, in many cases, the uncertainty arises from randomness, not an adv ...
Communications is about conveying information from one point to another subject to certain performance constraints. The information is assumed to be generated by a source and may, for example, represent a voice waveform, the reading of a thermal sensor, or ...
We present a joint PHY/MAC architecture (DCC-MAC) for 802.15.4a-like networks based on PPM-UWB. Unlike traditional approaches it fully utilizes the specific nature of UWB to achieve high rates at low protocol complexity. It is the first MAC protocol that a ...
This paper presents an error resilient coding scheme for atomic image bitstreams, as generated by Matching Pursuit encoders. A joint source and channel coding algorithm is proposed, that takes benefit of both the flexibility in the image representation, an ...
We propose a MAC protocol for very low radiated power (1 microwatt) ultra-wide band (UWB) mobile ad-hoc networks. Unlike traditional approaches, our protocol fully utilizes the specific nature of the physical layer of UWB. This makes it possible to reach a ...
We consider the impact of multi-user interference on a bit-interleaved coded-modulation system with M-ary PPM (BIC M-ary PPM) in an impulse-radio ultra-wideband physical layer. In a realistic scenario such as an ad hoc network, the interference is inherent ...
