Design of Optimal Entropy-Constrained Unrestricted Polar Quantizer for Bivariate Circularly Symmetric Sources

Huihui Wu, Sorina Dumitrescu

Abstract

This paper proposes an algorithm for the design of entropy-constrained unrestricted polar quantizer (ECUPQ) for bivariate circularly symmetric sources. The algorithm is globally optimal for the class of ECUPQs with magnitude quantizer thresholds confined to a finite set. The optimization problem is formulated as the minimization of a weighted sum of the distortion and entropy and the proposed solution is based on modeling the problem as a minimum-weight path problem in a certain weighted directed acyclic graph. The proposed algorithm enables solving the overall problem in O(K <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> log|P̂|) time, where K is the size of the set of possible magnitude thresholds and P̂ is the set of the number of phase levels for the uniform phase quantizers.
