  • Abstract
    This authors report on an investigation of possible source/channel coders for medical image transmission over a GSM cellular link. Two source coders (JPEG and EZW) and two channel coders (convolutional and turbo codes) are used. Analysis of the results indicates that EZW with convolutional coding gives the best performance, but some kind of automatic repeat on request (ARQ) is also needed
