Distributed Source Coding

The advent of wireless sensor technology and ad hoc networks has made DSC a major field of interest. Edited and written in the future. DSC for systems, designers and implementers, researchers, and graduate students.

This book gives a clear understanding of the algorithms for realistic scenarios. Material covered by LDPC and Turbo codes, as DSC, and discussion of the compilation of compressed sensitivities for distributed compression of sparse signals. Extensive applications are presented and included in video coding, microphone arrays and securing biometric data.

This book is a great resource for the theoreticians to practitioners. - Richard Baraniuk, Rice University
