ABSTRACT:
An entropy-constrained trellis coded quantization scheme is presented for
encoding memoryless sources.  A simple 8-state trellis is used to encode the
memoryless Gaussian source with mean-squared-error performance within about
0.5 dB of the rate-distortion function.  This performance is achieved at all
non-negative encoding rates.
