5. Distinguish between global color table and local color table in GIF.
6. State the various methods used for text compression.
7. What is Syndrome?
8. Why are cyclic codes extremely well suited for error detection?

PART B — (5 × 16 = 80 Marks)


11. (a) (i) Explain briefly the source coding theorem. (6)
(ii) Given five symbols 4 3 2 1 0 and , , , S S S S S with their respective
probabilities. 0.4, 0.2, 0.2, 0.1 and 0.1. Use Huffman's encoding for
symbols and find the average code word length. Also prove that it
satisfies source coding theorem. (10)
Or
(b) State and prove the properties of mutual information. (16)
12. (a) Explain the concepts of frequency masking and temporal masking. How
they are used in perceptual coding? (16)
Or
(b) Explain in detail Adaptive Huffman coding with the help of an example.
(16)
13. (a) With a block diagram, explain the working of JPEG encoder and decoder.
(16)
Or
(b) With a block diagram, explain the MPEG algorithm for video encoding.
(16)
14. (a) For a linear block code, prove with example that
(i) The syndrome depends only on error pattern and not on
transmitted code word. (8)
(ii) All error patterns that differ by a codeword have the same
syndrome. (8)
Or
(b) Determine the encoded message for the following 8-bit data codes using
the CRC generating polynomial . ) ( 0 3 4 x x x n p + + = (16)
(i) 11001100
(ii) 01011111.

(iii) If the message sequence is 10110, determine the output sequence of
the encoder. (6)
Or
(b) Explain in detail the Viterbi algorithm for decoding of convolutional
codes with a suitable example. (16)
