For a Gaussian source under mean-squared error (MSE), classical transform coding is rate--distortion (RD) optimal: the Karhunen--Loeve transform (KLT) diagonalizes the covariance, reverse waterfilling allocates the bits, and scalar…

It is well known that independent (separate) encoding of K correlated sources may incur some rate loss compared to joint encoding, even if the decoding is done jointly. This loss is particularly evident in the multiple descriptions problem,…
