  • Abstract
    In this paper M-ary antiuniform Huffman codes are considered. In this case the source probability distribution assures the minimum average codeword length, by diversifying only one node on each level in the tree graph. A matrix characterization of the M-ary antiuniform Huffman code as a source with memory is performed and the information quantities are derived.
