Abstract :
A method for studying the asymptotic behavior of discrete transformations is developed using numerical quadrature theory. This method allows a more convenient examination of the correlation properties of common unitary transforms for large block sizes. As a practical result of this method it is shown that the discrete cosine transform is asymptotically optimal for all finite-order Markov signals.
