contents Deep learning-based joint source-channel coding (DJSCC) is expected to be a key technique for {the} next-generation wireless networks. However, the existing DJSCC schemes still face the challenge of channel adaptability as they are typically trained under specific channel conditions. In this paper, we propose a generic framework for channel-adaptive DJSCC by utilizing hypernetworks. To tailor the hypernetwork-based framework for communication systems, we propose a memory-efficient hypernetwork parameterization and then develop a channel-adaptive DJSCC network, named Hyper-AJSCC. Compared with existing adaptive DJSCC based on the attention mechanism, Hyper-AJSCC introduces much fewer parameters and can be seamlessly combined with various existing DJSCC networks without any substantial modifications to their neural network architecture. Extensive experiments demonstrate the better adaptability to channel conditions and higher memory efficiency of Hyper-AJSCC compared with state-of-the-art baselines.
