Error exponent for coding of memoryless Gaussian sources with a fidelity criterion
We are interesting in the error exponent for source coding with fidelity criterion. For each fixed distortion level Delta the maximum attainable error exponent at rate R, as a function of R. is called the reliability function. The minimum rate achieving the given error exponent is called the minimum achievable rate. For memoryless sources with finite alphabet, Marton (1974) gave an expression of the reliability function. The aim of the paper is to derive formulas for the reliability function and the minimum achievable rate for memoryless Gaussian sources.
