To reduce the waste of energy in communications, unequal error protection (UEP) is used to provide asymmetric protection for messages with different levels of importance. This paper proposes new efficient strategies of UEP based on bilayer protograph-based low-density parity check (PLDPC) codes in decoding-and-forward (DF) relay systems. In particular, we jointly utilize source coding and channel coding to design UEP strategies and then save transmission energy. According to the different levels of importance of discrete cosine transform (DCT) coefficients of image and variance statistical characteristics of image sub-blocks, bilayer-lengthened PLDPC codes are exploited to protect the transmitted image information with different importance levels at the half-duplex relay system. In the end, the simulation result shows that the proposed UEP schemes achieve excellent performance gains compared to conventional equal error protection (EEP) scheme. Additionally, the complexity analysis of the UEP strategies is given.
