Nonanticipative Rate Distortion Function for General Source-Channel Matching

Information Theory 2013-04-26 v2 math.IT

Abstract

In this paper we invoke a nonanticipative information Rate Distortion Function (RDF) for sources with memory, and we analyze its importance in probabilistic matching of the source to the channel so that transmission of a symbol-by-symbol code with memory without anticipation is optimal, with respect to an average distortion and excess distortion probability. We show achievability of the symbol-by-symbol code with memory without anticipation, and we evaluate the probabilistic performance of the code for a Markov source.
