A randomized covering-packing duality between source-coding and channel-coding

Information Theory 2015-05-25 v1 math.IT

Abstract

A randomized covering-packing duality between source and channel coding will be discussed by considering the source coding problem of coding a source with a certain distortion level and by considering a channel which communicates the source within a certain distortion level. An operational view of source-channel separation for communication with a fidelity criterion will be discussed in brief.
