Generalization of Shannon-Feinstein Theorem to Communication Systems with Fading and Feedback

摘要

The noisy channel coding theorem is extended to systems having fading and feedback. The communication channel is presumed discrete with finite memory, and the varying channel conditions are described explicitly by a stochastic parameter. Of particular interest is the maximum rate at which information can be sent error-free over the channel. This rate is compared with the stationary and the ergodic capacities of the channel.
