What is Improved Upper Bounds to the Causal Quadratic Rate-Distortion Function for Gaussian Stationary Sources about?

We improve the existing achievable rate regions for causal and for zero-delay source coding of stationary Gaussian sources under an average mean squared error (MSE) distortion measure. To begin with, we find a closed-form expression for the information-theoretic causal rate-distortion function (RDF) under such distortion measure, denoted by $R_{c}^{it}(D)$, for first-order Gauss-Markov processes. Rc^{it}(D) is a lower bound to the optimal performance theoretically attainable (OPTA) by any causal source code, namely Rc^{op}(D). We show that, for Gaussian sources, the latter can also be upper bounded as Rc^{op}(D)\leq Rc^{it}(D) + 0.5 log_{2}(2\pi e) bits/sample. In order to analyze $R_{c}^{it}(D)$ for arbitrary zero-mean Gaussian stationary sources, we introduce \bar{Rc^{it}}(D), the information-theoretic causal RDF when the reconstruction error is jointly stationary with the source. Based upon \bar{Rc^{it}}(D), we derive three closed-form upper bounds to the additive rate loss defined as \bar{Rc^{it}}(D) - R(D), where R(D) denotes Shannon's RDF. Two of these bounds are strictly smaller than 0.5 bits/sample at all rates. These bounds differ from one another in their tightness and ea
