Abstract
Practical implementation of video compression for distributed sources is currently an active research area. The distributed compression paradigm based on the Slepian-Wolf model has been proposed for low-complexity video compression algorithms and energy efficient wireless sensor networks. In this paper we consider joint source-channel resource allocation for sensor network applications based on the Slepian-Wolf paradigm in fading channel environments. The sensor nodes are modelled as a multiuser uplink channel transmitting correlated information. We study an efficient cross layer variable source rate allocation for the individual nodes based on the multi-access channel capacity and discuss efficient ways to compress and transmit the data over the wireless channel.
