title = "A turbo-coded multiple-description system for multiple antennas",
abstract = "We propose a joint source-channel coding scheme for wireless communication systems with multiple transmit and receive antennas. The source coder is realized by a multiple description encoder that generates multiple bit streams. Each description is then separately turbo coded and transmitted using multiple antennas. For the receiver, we describe a suitable iterative joint source-channel decoding technique that exploits the correlations between the descriptions. We present several examples that illustrate the performance of the proposed system, and compare it with other approaches.",
