Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely:  introduce a universal quantization scheme based on random coding, and  analyze its performance. This scheme consists of a source-independent random codebook (typically mismatched to the source distribution), follod by optimal entropy coding that is matched to the quantized codeword distribution. A single-letter formula is derived for the rate achieved by this scheme at a given distortion, in the limit of large codebook dimension. The rate reduction due to entropy coding is quantified, and it is shown that it can be arbitrarily large. In the special case of "almost uniform" codebooks (e.g., an independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) Gaussian codebook with large variance) and difference distortion measures, a novel connection is drawn beten the compression achieved by the present scheme and the performance of "universal" entropy-coded dithered lattice quantizers. This connection generalizes the "half-a-bit" bound on the redundancy of dithered lattice quantizers. Moreover, it demonstrates a strong notion of universality where a single "almost uniform" codebook is near optimal for any source and any difference distortion measure. The proofs are based on the fact that the limiting empirical distribution of the first matching codeword in a random codebook can be precisely identified. This is done using elaborate large deviations techniques, that allow the derivation of a new "almost sure" version of the conditional limit theorem.
