We study the binomial channel and the structure of its capacity-achieving input and output distributions. It is known that the capacity-achieving input distribution is discrete and supported on finitely many points. The best previously…
An analog communication channel typically achieves its full capacity when the distribution of inputs is discrete, composed of just K symbols, such as voltage levels or wavelengths. As the effective noise level goes to zero, for example by…

The necessary and sufficient condition of the channel capacity is rigorously formulated for the N-user discrete memoryless multiple-access channel (MAC). The essence of the formulation is to invoke an {\em elementary} MAC where sizes of…
The capacity of a state-dependent discrete memoryless channel (SD-DMC) is derived for the setting where a message-cognizant rate-limited helper observes the state sequence noncausally, produces its description, and provides the description…
We study reliable communication over finite-state channels (FSCs) using Reed--Muller (RM) codes. Building on recent symmetry-based analyses for memoryless channels, we show that a sequence of binary RM codes (with some random scrambling)…
In this work, novel upper and lower bounds for the capacity of channels with arbitrary constraints on the support of the channel input symbols are derived. As an immediate practical application, the case of multiple-input multiple-output…

Many communication channels with discrete input have non-uniform capacity achieving probability mass functions (PMF). By parsing a stream of independent and equiprobable bits according to a full prefix-free code, a modu-lator can generate…
