Abstract :
Problems in optimal multidimensional quantization of sources corrupted by noise are addressed. Expressions for the optimum quantizer values and the optimum quantization rule for the weighted squared error distortion measure are found and calculated for the Gaussian signal in additive independent Gaussian noise problem. Some properties of the optimum quantizer, and its relations with the optimal estimator for the general problem, are derived
