What is cascaded channels?

(a) The transition from one generation to the next can be modelled as communication of information through a noisy channel. Thus, long waiting times can be modelled as a cascade of similar channels.

What is maximum capacity of binary symmetric channel?

The capacity of the binary symmetric channel is C = 1 − H(p) bits per transmission, and the capacity of the binary erasure channel is C = 1 − α bits per transmission.

How to find the equivalent channel matrix when two BSC are connected in cascaded form?

First, we need to find the equivalent channel matrix: X = YI = (0.75*0.75) + (0.65*0.65) = 0.82 + 0.18 = 1.12 Next, we need to determine the overall channel capacity: C = X*P(x) + Y*P(y) = 1.12*0.65 + 1.12*0.75 = 0.86 Finally, we can determine the efficiency and redundancy: E = C/P(x) = 0.86/0.65 = 1.4 Efficiency is ...
