Abstract: We consider the distributed source coding system of $L$ correlated Gaussian sources $Y_i,i=1,2,\mathrm{...},L$ which are noisy observations of correlated Gaussian remote sources $X_k,k=1,2,\mathrm{...},K$. We assume that $Y^L={}^{mt}(Y_1,Y_2,$ $\mathrm{...},Y_L)$ is an observation of the source vector $X^K={}^{mt}(X_1,X_2,\mathrm{...},X_K)$, having the form $Y^L=A{X}^K+N^L$, where $A$ is a $LimesK$ matrix and $N^L={}^{mt}(N_1,N_2,\mathrm{...},N_L)$ is a vector of $L$ independent Gaussian random variables also independent of $X^K$. In this system $L$ correlated Gaussian observations are separately compressed by $L$ encoders and sent to the information processing center. We study the remote source coding problem where the decoder at the center attempts to reconstruct the remote source $X^K$. We consider three distortion criteria based on the covariance matrix of the estimation error on $X^K$. For each of those three criteria we derive explicit inner and outer bounds of the rate distortion region. Next, in the case of $K=L$ and $A=I_L$, we study the multiterminal source coding problem where the decoder wishes to reconstruct the observation $Y^L=X^L+N^L$. To investigate this problem we shall establish a result which provides a strong connection between the remote source coding problem and the multiterminal source coding problem. Using this result, we drive several new partial solutions to the multiterminal source coding problem.
