Recently, as the necessity of a light-weighted video encoding technique has been rising for applications such as UCC(User Created Contents) or Multiview Video, Distributed Video Coding(DVC) where a decoder, not an encoder, performs the motion estimation/compensation taking most of computational complexity has been vigorously investigated. Wyner-Ziv coding reconstructs an image by eliminating the noise on side information which is decoder-side prediction of original image using channel code. Generally the side information of Wyner-Ziv coding is generated by using frame interpolation between key frames. The channel code such as Turbo code or LDPC code which shows a performance close to the Shannon's limit is employed. The noise model of Wyner-Ziv coding for channel decoding is called Virtual Channel Noise and is generally modeled by Laplacian or Gaussian distribution. In this paper, we propose a Wyner-Ziv coding method based on the frequency-adaptive channel noise modeling in transform domain. The experimental results with various sequences prove that the proposed method makes the channel noise model more accurate compared to the conventional scheme, resulting in improvement of the rate-distortion performance by up to 0.52dB.

In this paper, an efficient butterfly structure for Radix-4 FFT algorithm using DA(Distributed Arithmetic) is proposed. It is shown that DA can be efficiently used in twiddle factor calculation of the Radix-4 FFT algorithm. The Verilog-HDL coding results for the proposed DA butterfly structure show $61.02\%$ cell area reduction comparison with those of the conventional multiplier butterfly structure. furthermore, the 64-point Radix-4 pipeline structure using the proposed butterfly and delay commutators is compared with other conventional structures. Implementation coding results show $46.1\%$ cell area reduction. Due to its efficient processing scheme, the proposed FFT structure can be widely used in large size of FFT like OFDM Modem.

In Ad-hoc networks, centralized power control is not suitable due to the absence of base stations, which perform the power control operation in the network to optimize the system performance. Therefore, each node should perform power control algorithm distributedly instead of the centralized one. The conventional distributed power control algorithm does not consider the adaptive bit loading operation to change the MCS (modulation and coding scheme) according to the received SINR (signal to interference and noise ratio), which limits the system throughput. In this paper, we propose a novel distributed bit loading and power control algorithm, which considers the adaptive bit loading operation to increase total system throughput and decrease outage probability. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm performs much better than the conventional algorithm.

In a P2P-based distributed storage system where peers frequently join and leave, it is essential to guarantee not only data availability but also playback quality comparable to that provided by local storage devices when playing back video files with real-time constraints. In addition, cloud storage services based on distributed storage systems provide each user with the functionality to share their files with other users, so when multiple users request playback of the same video file at the same time, all playback should be supported seamlessly in real time. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a scheme that process multiple simultaneous playback requests for each video file in real time as well as data availability in a P2P-based distributed storage system that supports file sharing. This scheme can support real-time simultaneous playback and efficiently use storage space by adjusting the amount of redundant data encoded through erasure coding according to the number of concurrent playback requests for each video file.

In OFDMA or SC-FDMA systems one can generate time varying channels or frequency selective channels using multiple transmit antennas to achieve diversity without special space-time processing at the receivers. While low channel coding rate needs to be used for distributed-allocation SC-FDMA systems with a phase rolling technique to produce time fluctuation, relatively high channel coding rate can be used when cyclic delay diversity is used to increase frequency selectivity assuming quasi-static channel. On the other hand, for block-hopping SC-FDMA systems there is no significant difference between two diversity techniques in terms of optimal channel coding rates.

Network coding has been extensively studied to increase the network throughput by exploiting the broadcast and overhearing capabilities. In this paper, we formulate a network utility maximization problem to improve the network utility in multichannel, multiradio and multisession wireless multihop network with intrasession network coding. To find the solution of this problem, we propose a congestion control, distributed rate control, and heuristic resource allocation algorithm. We find the network utility and evaluate the performance in multichannel, multiradio and multisession environment by using MATLAB. Finally, the results show that the proposed schemes can achieve throughput improvement by performing the network utility optimization in wireless multihop network.

As a video encoding in resource constrained environments such as sensor networks has become an important issue, DVC(Distributed Video Coding) has been intensively investigated as a solution for light weighted video encoding problem. Known as one of the representative schemes of DVC, the Wyner-Ziv coding generates side information of current frame only at decoder, using correlation among frames, and reconstructs video through noise elimination on the side information using channel code. Accordingly, the better quality of side information brings less channel noise, thus attains better coding performance of the Wyner-Ziv coder. However, since it is hard for decoder to generate an accurate side information without any information of original frame, a method to successively improve side information using successively decoded original frame, based on decoding reliability, was previously developed. However, to improve side information from decoding results, not only an error rate of the decoding result as a reliability, but also the amount of reliable information from the decoding result is important. Therefore, we propose TDWZ(Transform-domain Wyner-Ziv coding) with successively improving side information based on decoding reliability considering not only an error rate but also the amount of reliable information of the decoding results. Our experiment shows the proposed method gains average PSNR up to 1.7 dB over the previous TDWZ, that is without successive side information improvement.

In this paper, a new wavelet filter design algorithm is proposed which optimizes energy compaction of transformed coefficients. The filter, designed by the proposed algorithm enhances the coding gain of the system with fixed quantizer by most unevenly distributed energy in transform domain. The coding gain function was extended to obtain the optimal filter coefficients in each stage. The experiments showed that the filter designed by proposed method outperforms conventional filters in energy compaction rate.

In this paper, we extend the case of information exchange error mitigation for the distributed orthogonal space-time block code (DOSTBC) for two transmit antennas to distributed quasi-orthogonal space-time block code (DQOSTBC) for four transmit antennas. A rate 1 full-diversity DQOSTBC for four transmit antennas is designed. The code matrix changes according to different information exchange error cases, so full diversity is maintained even if not all information exchange is correct. We also perform analysis of the pairwise error probability. The performance analysis indicates that the proposed rate 1 DQOSTBC outperforms rate 1/2 DOSTBC for four transmit antennas at the same transmission rate, which is confirmed by the simulation results.

The low-power design of the digital hearing aid is indispensable to achieve the compact portable device with long battery duration. In this paper, new low-power adaptive filter structure is proposed based on distributed arithmetic(DA). By modifying the DA technique, the proposed decimation filter structure can significantly reduce the power consumption and implementation area. Through Verilog-HDL coding, cell occupation of the proposed structure is reduced to 33.49% in comparison with that of the conventional multiplier structure. Since Verilog-HDL simulation processing time of the two structures are same, it is assumed that the power consumption or implementation area is proportional to the cell occupation in the simulation.
