Abstract
- Vector quantization-based image semantic communication systems have successfully boosted transmission efficiency, but face a challenge with conflicting requirements between codebook design and digital constellation modulation. Traditional codebooks need a wide index range, while modulation favors few discrete states. To address this, we propose a multilevel generative semantic communication system with a two-stage training framework. In the first stage, we train a high-quality codebook, using a multi-head octonary codebook (MOC) to compress the index range. We also integrate a residual vector quantization (RVQ) mechanism for effective multilevel communication. In the second stage, a noise reduction block (NRB) based on Swin Transformer is introduced, coupled with the multilevel codebook from the first stage, serving as a high-quality semantic knowledge base (SKB) for generative feature restoration. Experimental results highlight MOC-RVQ's superior performance over methods like BPG or JPEG, even without channel error correction coding.<br />Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures
