Lecture 18: Transmitting Information Reliably over a Noisy Channel & Shannon’s Noisy Coding Theorem
How do you transmit information reliably over noisy channels? We first discuss simple codes: repetition codes. Shannon’s noisy coding theorem shows much better codes exist. We prove the simplest case of this theorem—for the binary symmetric channel.
