Mismatch capacity per unit cost

Abstract

Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 1999.Includes bibliographical references (p. 48).The mismatch channel capacity per unit cost represents the maximum number of bits per unit cost that can be transmitted reliably across a channel under receiver mismatch conditions. It's reciprocal is the minimal cost of transmitting a bit reliably under these conditions. We derive lower bounds for the mismatch channel capacity per unit cost and discuss some of its properties.by Anand Ganti.S.M
