PROBLEMS

3.1. Derive the PCM 6 dB per bit rule when the quantization error has a uniform probability density function.

3.2. For a signal with Gaussian distribution (zero mean and unit variance)

  1. Design a uniform PCM quantizer with four levels.
  2. Design a nonuniform four-level quantizer that is optimized for the signal PDF. Compare with the uniform PCM in terms of SNR.

3.3. For the PDF image, determine the mean, the variance, and the probability that a random variable will fall within ±σx of the mean value.

3.4. For the PDF, p(x), given in Figure 3.22, design a four-level PDF-optimized PCM and compare to uniform PCM in terms of SNR.

3.5. Give and justify a formula for the number of bits in simple vector quantization with N × 1 vectors and L template vectors.

3.6. Give in terms of L and N the order of complexity in a VQ codebook search, where L is the number of codebook entries and N is the codebook dimension. Consider the following cases: (i) a simple VQ, (ii) a multi-step VQ, and (iii) a split VQ. For (ii) and (iii), use configurations given in Figure 3.12 and Figure 3.14, respectively.
