Polar Codes for Distributed Hierarchical Source Coding

Published 22 Apr 2014 in cs.IT and math.IT | (1404.5501v1)

Abstract: We show that polar codes can be used to achieve the rate-distortion functions in the problem of hierarchical source coding also known as the successive refinement problem. We also analyze the distributed version of this problem, constructing a polar coding scheme that achieves the rate distortion functions for successive refinement with side information.
