It is a state-of-the-art presentation of this exciting, thriving field of research, making pioneering contributions to the new concept of source-adaptive modulation.The book starts with the basic theory and the motivation for a joint realization of source and channel coding. Specialized chapters deal with practically relevant scenarios such as iterative source-channel decoding and its optimization for a given encoder, and also improved encoder designs by channel-adaptive quantization or source-adaptive modulation.Although Information Theory is not the main topic of the book -- in fact, the concept of joint source-channel coding is contradictory to the classical system design motivated by a questionable practical interpretation of the separation theorem -- this theory still provides the ultimate performance limits for any practical system, whether it uses joint source-channel coding or not. Therefore, the theoretical limits are presented in a self-contained appendix, which is a useful reference also for those not directly interested in the main topic of this book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Norbert Goertz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1860948456\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781860948459\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Imperial College Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/24\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.23h x 6.09w x 0.73d","brand":"Norbert Goertz","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48088932581631,"sku":"9781860948459","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a9a1fe9c-6fc5-4ec5-b4c9-b4e3c21d846f.jpg?v=1769107351","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/joint-source-channel-coding-of-discrete-time-norbert-goertz-9781860948459","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
