Abstract :
Two results on the coding of stationary nonergodic sources are presented. The first is a source coding theorem stating that there exist variable-rate codes with performance arbitrarily close to the rate-distortion function of the stationary nonergodic source. The second is a converse information transmission theorem. It is shown that the distortion which results when the source is transmitted across a channel with capacity 
is no less than the least distortion achievable by fixed-rate codes with rate .
is no less than the least distortion achievable by fixed-rate codes with rate .Keywords :
