Abstract

This paper proposes a new image transmission control method for fading channels, which uses SR-ARQ based on the DCT frequency and image frame structure. The experimental results gained using a PHS 32 kbit/s digital bearer as the communication channel show that, with some slight image quality degradation, this method can reduce the image transmission time by more 50% at a FER of 2×10^-1 compared to conventional SR-ARQ. The experimental results gained by applying the proposed method to moving picture transmission using motion JPEG, show that a QCIF size moving picture can be transmitted at a frame rate of 1.3 frame/sec with some error, and is transmitted at a frame rate of 0.9 frame/sec at a FER of 2×10^-1 with 1.5 dB of image quality degradation
