We show that for any cellular automaton (CA) ℤ²-action Φ on the space of all doubly infinite sequences with values in a finite set A, determined by an automaton rule F = F [ l , r ] , l,r ∈ ℤ, l ≤ r, and any Φ-invariant Borel probability measure, the directional entropy h v ( Φ ) , v⃗= (x,y) ∈ ℝ², is bounded above by m a x ( | z l | , | z r | ) l o g A if z l z r 0 and by | z r - z l | in the opposite case, where z l = x + l y , z r = x + r y . We also show that in the class of permutative CA-actions the bounds are attained if the measure considered is uniform Bernoulli.
