Deep Joint Source-Channel Coding with Iterative Source Error Correction

17 Feb 2023arXiv:2302.09174archive 2025-07-28

In this paper, we propose an iterative source error correction (ISEC) decoding scheme for deep-learning-based joint source-channel coding (Deep JSCC). Given a noisy codeword received through the channel, we use a Deep JSCC encoder and decoder pair to update the codeword iteratively to find a (modified) maximum a-posteriori (MAP) solution. For efficient MAP decoding, we utilize a neural network-based denoiser to approximate the gradient of the log-prior density of the codeword space. Albeit the non-convexity of the optimization problem, our proposed scheme improves various distortion and perceptual quality metrics from the conventional one-shot (non-iterative) Deep JSCC decoding baseline. Furthermore, the proposed scheme produces more reliable source reconstruction results compared to the baseline when the channel noise characteristics do not match the ones used during training.
