| Sumario: | Predictive coding techniques are attractive for image codecs because they can yield high compression efficiency while spending few computational resources. In remote sensing, predictive techniques are employed in prominent standards to transmit images captured by Earth Observation (EO) satellites. Although EO satellites have full duplex capacity, compression standards for spatial data are devised to use the downlink only. Recently, we presented a dual-link image coding system that employs both the uplink and the downlink to accelerate the transmission of such images. The proposed system was introduced in the wavelet-based JPEG2000 standard, which is not well-suited for satellites due to its complexity. This letter approaches the dual-link scheme to a more suitable standard for spatial data based on predictive coding, more precisely, the Lossless Multispectral and Hyperspectral image compression standard CCSDS-123.0-B.2. The proposed method adapts the dual-link image coding scheme to CCSDS-123.0-B-2 by incorporating a quantizer, a lightweight arithmetic coder, and a rate control technique. Experimental results suggest that the resulting system achieves higher coding ratios than CCSDS-123.0-B-2 and JPEG2000 with dual link. |
