Abstract
A distributed lossy compression network with <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$L$ </tex-math></inline-formula> encoders and a decoder is considered. Each encoder observes a source and sends a compressed version to the decoder. The decoder produces a joint reconstruction of target signals with the mean squared error distortion below a given threshold. It is assumed that the observed sources can be expressed as the sum of target signals and corruptive noises which are independently generated from two symmetric multivariate Gaussian distributions. The minimum compression rate of this network versus the distortion threshold is referred to as the rate-distortion function, for which an explicit lower bound is established by solving a minimization problem. Our lower bound matches the well-known Berger-Tung upper bound for some values of the distortion threshold. The asymptotic gap between the upper and lower bounds is characterized in the large <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$L$ </tex-math></inline-formula> limit.
