On the Excess Distortion Exponent of the Quadratic-Gaussian Wyner-Ziv Problem

An achievable excess distortion exponent for compression of a white Gaussian source by dithered lattice quantization is derived. We show that for a required distortion level close enough to the rate-distortion function, and in the high-rate limit, the exponent equals the optimal quadratic-Gaussian e...
