Abstract

In digital mobile communications the input speech, audio, or video signal has to be quantized before transmission. In this paper, we propose a novel quantizer design strategy which is optimized for the case that iterative sourcechannel decoding (ISCD) is applied at the receiver site. The combination of the new quantizer with the ISCD

scheme reveals a substantially increased error robustness in bad channel conditions at the cost of a tolerable loss of baseline performance in almost error-free situations. This trade-off can smoothly be adjusted.
