Résumé: We propose the use of punctured turbo codes for compression of correlated binary sources. Compression is achieved because of puncturing. The resulting performance is close to the theoretical limit provided by the Slepian-Wolf theorem. No information about the correlation between sources is required in the encoding process. The proposed source decoder utilizes iterative schemes, and performs well even when the correlation between the sources is not known in the decoder, since it can be estimated jointly with the iterative decoding process.
