Abstract:
1. A method for transmitting data on a channel in a network, comprising: determining, by a processor, a ratio of a number of channel uses of the channel to a number of source samples, wherein the number of channel uses refers to an ability of the channel to transmit the source samples; dividing, by the processor, a channel bandwidth into a plurality of subbands of equal bandwidth in accordance with the ratio; receiving, by the processor, a source sample block; determining, by the processor, a channel input for each of the plurality of subbands from the source sample block in accordance with a hybrid coding scheme; and transmitting, by the processor, for each of the plurality of subbands, the channel input that is determined over the network to a decoder that reconstructs the source sample block using the channel input for the each of the plurality of subbands regardless of whether a channel condition of a respective subband of the plurality of subbands is worse or better than a target channel condition.
