Question

A discrete first-order Markov source generates two dependent symbols A and B with conditional probabilities: P(A|A) = 0.8 P(B|A) = 0.2 P(A|B) = 0.6 P(B|B) = 0.4 From Homework #1 we know the stationary distribution is: P(A) = 0.75 P(B) = 0.25 and the source entropy is H(S) = 0.7842 bits/symbol. Design a binary Huffman code for the second extension of this source (two symbols at a time). Determine the efficiency of this code. Design a binary Huffman code for the third extension (three symbols at a time) of the Markov source of Problem 3 above. Determine the efficiency of this code.

Step 1

There are four possible combinations: AA, AB, BA, and BB. We can find their probabilities using the given conditional probabilities and stationary distribution: P(AA) = P(A|A) * P(A) = 0.8 * 0.75 = 0.6 P(AB) = P(B|A) * P(A) = 0.2 * 0.75 = 0.15 P(BA) = P(A|B) * Show more…
