Abstract

The traditional approach consisting in separately optimizing each module of a transmission chain has shown limitations in the case of wireless communications where delay, power limitation and error-prone channels are experienced. This is why modern designers focus on a more integrated strategy to establish the heterogeneous 21st century networks, such as 3G (i.e. UMTS) system and its evolutions (i.e. Beyond 3G or 4G like LTE or future 5G systems). Indeed, it was shown in several studies that optimal allocation of user and system resources could be effectively achieved with the co-operative optimization of communication system components. In this chapter, an innovative Joint-Source Channel Coding and Decoding (JSCC/D) system is described and its performance over an IPv6-based Network infrastructure is assessed. A particular focus is put on the application controller, the key component to realize the adaptation strategies. Conclusions and considerations about the system implementation are also proposed, and the interest of a possible extension to a point-to-multipoint scenario is explained.
