Abstract

Consider the optimum strategy for using channel state ("side") information in transmission over a moduloadditive noise channel, where the receiver does not have access to the side information. Recent work showed that capacity-wise, the optimum transmitter shifts each code letter by a "prediction" of the noise sample based on the side information. We show that this structure achieves also the random-coding error exponent, and therefore is optimum at some range of rates below capacity. Specifically, the optimum transmitter-predictor minimizes the Rényi entropy of the prediction error; the Rényi order depends on the rate, and goes to one (corresponding to Shannon entropy) for rates close to capacity. We also consider the problem of coding with side information at the transmitter subject to a power constraint.
