A Unified Representation of Differential Pulse-Code Modulation (DPCM) and Transform Coding Systems
Ahmad Rizky Nusantara Habibi, R. Hershel · IRE Transactions on Communications Systems · 1974
We consider a transform coding system that uses a lower-triangular transformation to uncorrelate the data. Based on this transformation we propose a generalized differential pulse code modulation (DPCM) system and show that at high bit rates it performs almost as well as coding by the method of principal components (Karhunen-Loeve transformation). This study connects the transform coding system to the DPCM encoder by showing that the proposed system simplifies to a standard DPCM encoder for Markov data.
