The idea is to extract the bit probability information from the Huffman coding and use it to compute the a priori source information which can be used when the channel environment is bad. The suggested scheme does not require changes on the transmitter side. Compared with separate decoding systems, the gain in signal to noise ratio is about 0 5-1.0 dB with a limi...展开更多

We test those algorithms on different files of different sizes and then conclude that: LZW is the best one in all compression scales that we tested especially on the large files, then Huffman, HFLC, and FLC, respectively. Data compression still is an important topic for research these days, and has many applications and uses needed. Therefore, we suggest continuing searching in this field and trying to combine two techniques in order to reach a best one, or use another source mapping (Hamming) like embedding a linear array into a Hypercube with other good techniques like Huffman and trying to reach good results.展开更多

Simulations demonstrate that in the presence of source redundancy, the proposed algorithm gives better performance than the Separate Source and Channel Decoding algorithm (SSCD).展开更多
