Abstract

Since wireless channels exhibit dramatic near-instantaneous channel-quality fluctuations, it is unrealistic to expect that a transceiver relying on time-invariant modulation and coding modes is capable of delivering as good a performance as a near-instantaneously adaptive arrangement. Hence, a near-instantaneously adaptive joint-detection code division multiple access (CDMA)-based video transceiver is proposed for wireless video telephony. Specifically, the transceiver is capable of reconfiguring itself in 1, 2 and 4 bits/symbol direct-sequence CDMA modes and delivers an unimpaired video quality associated with a peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) of 34-41 dB for channel SNRs in excess of about 5 dB over the COST207 bad urban channel model at video rates between 5-26.9 kbits/s using 176/spl times/144 pixel quarter common intermediate format (QCIF) and 128/spl times/96 pixel sub-QCIF (SQCIF) video formats.
