Abstract
Semantic communication represents a promising roadmap toward achieving end-to-end communication with reduced communication overhead and an enhanced user experience. The integration of semantic concepts with wireless communications presents novel challenges. This paper proposes a flexible simulation software that automatically transmits semantic segmentation map images over a communication channel. An additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel using binary phase-shift keying (BPSK) modulation is considered as the channel setup. The well-known polar codes are chosen as the channel coding scheme. The popular COCO-Stuff dataset is used as an example to generate semantic map images corresponding to different signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs). To evaluate the proposed software, we have generated four small datasets, each containing a thousand semantic map samples, accompanied by comprehensive information corresponding to each image, including the polar code specifications, detailed image attributes, bit error rate (BER), and frame error rate (FER). The capacity to generate an unlimited number of semantic maps utilizing desired channel coding parameters and preferred SNR, in conjunction with the flexibility of using alternative datasets, renders our simulation software highly adaptable and transferable to a broad range of use cases.
