In this text we investigate robust subband/wavelet coding and transmission of images and video. The text is divided into two parts. In the first part we focus on robust encoding of image and video sources by domain partitioning. The goal is to optimally divide the signal domain and encode the different components independently so that missing components can be easily estimated from the received ones upon transmission. We show that such a scheme can provide relatively good results even when simple estimation methods are used. Further performance improvement can be achieved through unequal loss...
