Abstract

Channel simulation involves generating a sample YY from the conditional distribution PYXP_{Y|X}, where XX is a remote realization sampled from PXP_X. This paper introduces a novel approach to approximate Gaussian channel simulation using dithered quantization. Our method concurrently simulates nn channels, reducing the upper bound on the excess information by half compared to one-dimensional methods. When used with higher-dimensional lattices, our approach achieves up to six times reduction on the upper bound. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the KL divergence between the distributions of the simulated and Gaussian channels decreases with the number of dimensions at a rate of O(n1)O(n^{-1}).
