The error exponent of variable-length codes over Markov channels with feedback

The error exponent of Markov channels with feedback is studied in the variable-length block-coding setting. Burnashev's classic result is extended to finite-state ergodic Markov channels. For these channels, a single-letter characterization of the reliability function is presented, under the as...
