  • Abstract
    This paper considers vector quantization of signals using the L ∞ distortion measure. The key contribution is a result that allows one to characterize the centroid of a set of vectors for the L∞ distortion measure. A method similar to the LEG algorithm for designing codebooks has been developed and tested. The paper also discusses the design of vector quantizers employing the L∞ distortion measure in an application in which the occurrences of quantization errors with larger magnitudes than a pre-selected threshold must be minimized
