Abstract


In this paper, we have proposed two solutions for approximating the optimal compressor function for the Gaussian source. Both solutions are based on approximating Q-function with exponential functions. These solutions differ in that the second one is given in parametric form and can be considered as a more general solution compared to the first one, which is a special case of the second solution for a specific value of the mentioned parameter. The approximated functions proposed in the paper facilitate designing scalar companding quantizers for the Gaussian source since with the application of these functions main difficulties occurred in designing the observed quantizers for the Gaussian source can be overcome.
