Source Coding in Digital Communications ENSC 861 (3)
This course presents basics of information theory and source coding with applications to speech/audio, images/video and multimedia. The course first covers the topics of entropy, information, channel capacity and rate-distortion functions. Various techniques used in source coding, such as entropy coding, scalar and vector quantization, prediction, transforms, analysis by synthesis, and model based coding are then discussed. Prerequisite: ENSC 802 or equivalent.
