\ \ Information Theory and coding lecture 13 :- Independent Transmission
Independent Transmission This is the opposite case of the noiseless channel, where the symbols {??} are independent of the symbols { ?? }, for all i and j. Thus, note: if we have independent transmission then the average mutual information is zero, also (using the relations between entropies and average mutual information)
Symmetric Channels The symmetric channels are those channels that have identical correct transition probabilities for all symbols and similarly for the incorrect transmission probability. Example:- Binary Symmetric Channel (BSC) its general form is given by:
Symmetric Channels Example:-Ternary Symmetric Channel (TSC)
Question Specify the type of the following channels (noiseless or/and symmetric) and then draw the model of each channel:
