The Golden Quantizer: The Complex Gaussian Random Variable Case
The Golden Quantizer: The Complex Gaussian Random Variable Case
The problem of quantizing a circularly symmetric complex Gaussian random variable is considered. For this purpose, we design two non-uniform quantizers, a high-rate- and a Lloyd-Max-quantizer, that are both based on the (golden angle) spiral-phyllotaxis packing principle. We find that the proposed schemes have lower mean-square error distortion compared to …
