The Redundancy of Slepian-Wolf Coding Revisited

Abstract: [Draft] In this paper, the redundancy of Slepian Wolf coding is revisited. Applying the random binning and converse technique in \cite{yang}, the same results in \cite{he} are obtained with much simpler proofs. Moreover, our results reflect more details about the high-order terms of the coding rate. The redundancy is investigated for both fixed-rate and variable-rate cases. The normal approximation (or dispersion) can also be obtained with minor modification.
