“…Here, we aim to minimize the bounds on achievable rates shown in (4) to make our encoding more efficient. Considering the first lower bound in (4), we derived an interesting result in [10] that shows for any Gaussian tree such mutual information value is only a function of given p X (x) ∼ N (0, Σ x ). However, considering the second second inequality in (4), in Theorem 2, whose proof can be found in Appendix A. we show that under Gaussian tree assumption, the lower bound I[Y (l+1) ; Y (l) |B (l) ], l ∈ [0, L − 1] is minimized for homogeneous Bernoulli sign inputs.…”
