We propose a novel multi-stream error protection scheme based on packet division multiplexing access (PDMA) and cross-path forward error coding. Compared with the traditional time division multiplexing access (TDMA)-based error protection scheme, the proposed scheme outperforms 1.43 1.88 dB for the averaged PSNR of all received streams %B Image Processing, 2006 IEEE International Conference on %P 21 - 24 %8 2006/10// %G eng %R 10.1109/ICIP.2006.313151
