The third-order term in the normal approximation for singular channels
For a singular and symmetric discrete memoryless channel with positive
dispersion, the third-order term in the normal approximation is shown to be
upper bounded by a constant. This finding completes the characterization of the
third-order term for symmetric discrete memoryless channels. The proof method
is extended to asymmetric and singular channels with constant composition
codes, and its connection to existing results, as well as its limitation in the
error exponents regime, are discussed.Comment: Submitted to IEEE Trans. Inform. Theor
