Abstract :
We consider the problem of joint source-channel coding for progressive packetized transmission of an image over a packet-loss network whose packet-loss rate is a random variable. We obtain an algorithm for unequal erasure protection which, by design, maintains progressivity i.e., good performance at intermediate transmission budgets
