Abstract :
Current popular Internet audio streaming solutions impose a division between source coding (provided, for example, by MPEG Layer III-MP3) and channel coding, which is accomplished in the server, typically by means of packet retransmission. We present a novel joint source and channel coder which provides packet loss recovery and continuous bit rate scalability. These functionalities are well suited to streaming audio over 3rd and future generation wireless broadband networks
