An information-theoretic framework for unequal error protection is developed in terms of the exponential error bounds. The fundamental difference between the bit-wise and message-wise unequal error protection (UEP) is demonstrated, for fixed-length block codes on discrete memoryless channels (DMCs) without feedback. Effect of feedback is investigated via variable-length block codes. It is shown that, feedback results in a significant improvement in both bit-wise and message-wise UEPs (except the single message case for missed detection). The distinction between false-alarm and missed-detection formalizations for message-wise UEP is also considered. All results presented are at rates close to capacity.

Some Fundamental Limits of Unequal Error Protection Borade, Shashi; Nakiboğlu, Barış; Zheng, Lizhong (2008-01-08) An information theoretic framework for unequal error protection is developed in terms of the exponential error bounds. The fundamental difference between the bit-wise and message-wise unequal error protection (UEP ) is demonstrated, for fixed length block codes on DMCs without feedback. Effect of feedback is investigated via variable length block codes. It is shown that, feedback results in a significant improvement in both bit-wise and message-wise UEP (except the single message case for missed detection)....
Bit-Wise Unequal Error Protection for Variable-Length Block Codes With Feedback Nakiboğlu, Barış; Zheng, Lizhong; Coleman, Todd P (2013-03-01) The bit-wise unequal error protection problem, for the case when the number of groups of bits is fixed, is considered for variable-length block codes with feedback. An encoding scheme based on fixed-length block codes with erasures is used to establish inner bounds to the achievable performance for finite expected decoding time. A new technique for bounding the performance of variable-length block codes is used to establish outer bounds to the performance for a given expected decoding time. The inner and th...
Optimized Transmission of 3D Video over DVB-H Channel Bugdayci, Done; Akar, Gözde; Gotchev, Atanas (2012-01-17) In this paper, we present a complete framework of an end-to-end error resilient transmission of 3D video over DVB-H and provide an analysis of transmission parameters. We perform the analysis for various layering, protection strategy and prediction structure using different contents and different channel conditions.
Quadrature-Error Compensation and Corresponding Effects on the Performance of Fully Decoupled MEMS Gyroscopes Tatar, Erdinc; Alper, Said Emre; Akın, Tayfun (2012-06-01) This paper presents experimental data about the sources of the quadrature error in a fully decoupled microelectromechanical systems gyroscope and demonstrates the extent of performance improvement by the cancellation of this error. Quadrature sources including mass, electrostatic-force, and mechanical-spring imbalances have been compared by FEM simulations, and spring imbalance has been found as the dominant source of the quadrature error. Gyroscopes have been designed with intentional spring imbalances and...
Bit-wise Unequal Error Protection for Variable Length Blockcodes with Feedback Gorantla, Siva K; Nakiboğlu, Barış; Coleman, Todd P; Zheng, Lizhong (2010-07-23) Bit-wise unequal error protection problem with two layers is considered for variable length block-codes with feedback. Inner and outer bounds are derived for achievable performance for finite expected decoding time. These bounds completely characterize the error exponent of the special bits as a function of overall rate R, overall error exponent E and the rate of the special bits R-s. Single message Message-wise unequal protection problem is also solved as a step on the way.
