Image coding/transmission with optimal filtering for a wavelet based multiple description approach

Communication via the Internet spreads out nowadays. Multimedia data such as image or video are aimed to be sent over the Internet without error. Multiple Description Coding (MDC) is an important coding/transmission method that is developed to send the data over error-prone network. In this work, an optimal filtering approach is applied to a wavelet based MDC method that is commonly used in the literature. Experimental results show that the proposed approach provides better results in case of packet losses in the channel compared to conventional approaches.
