Zoran H. Perić - Veljko Lj. Stanković - Aleksandra Z. Jovanović - Srdjan M. Bogosavljević

   In this paper we will present a design procedure of an optimal piecewise uniform vector quantizer of a memoryless Laplacian source. We will derive expressions for the granular distortion and the optimum number of the output points in each subregion. We will also compare the obtained results with the results presented in reference [7] and on the basis of that we will derive some conclusions about the proposed models.

Keywords: piecewise uniform vector quantizer, Laplacian source, optimal asymptotic analysis
