Resumo: Vector quantization (VQ) has been widely used in image coding systems. However, it is highly sensitive to channel errors, which may lead to very annoying blocking artifacts in the reconstructed images. In the present paper, modulation diversity (MD) is combined with index assignment (IA) by simulated annealing for improving image VQ for a Rayleigh fading channel: MD is used to reduce the bit error probability while IA is used as an attempt to reduce the visual impact of channel errors.
