  • Abstract
    For discrete memoryless sources with a single-letter fidelity criterion, we study the probability of the event that the distortion exceeds a level d , if for large block length the best code of given rate R > R(d) is used. Lower and upper exponential bounds are obtained, giving the asymptotically exact exponent, except possibly for a countable set of R values.
