Abstract
The purpose of this work is to associate the channel encoder called ‘trellis-coded modulation with Ungerboeck-Gray mapping’ (TCM-UGM) to ‘space–time block code’ (STBC), in order to study its performance to correct the transmission errors of a JPEG image. The performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated in senses of bit error rate (BER), frame error rate (FER) and peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) of the reconstructed image. Compared to the association TCM/STBC for a throughput of 2 bits/s/Hz, TCM-UGM/STBC permits to obtain a PSNR gain up to 2 dB.
