An Outer Bound for the Multi-Terminal Rate-Distortion Region
W. Kang, S. Ulukus
Abstract
The multi-terminal rate-distortion problem has been studied extensively. Notably, among these, Tung and Housewright have provided the best known inner and outer bounds for the rate region under certain distortion constraints. In this paper, we first propose an outer bound for the rate region, and show that it is tighter than the outer bound of Tung and Housewright. Our outer bound involves some n-letter Markov chain constraints, which cause computational difficulties. We utilize a necessary condition for the Markov chain constraints to obtain another outer bound, which is represented in terms of some single-letter mutual information expressions evaluated over probability distributions that satisfy some single-letter conditions.
