Fellowships in Information and Stochastic Systems

Abstract

The most extensive results obtained were on the capacity of Poisson communication channels. Such channels are central to optical communications. The results obtained included information capacity and coding capacity when the channel noise intensity was permitted to be time-varying and random. Previous research on these problems was limited to channels with constant encoder intensity. In this same area, the information capacity of a Poisson channel subject to jamming was determined. Keywords: Stochastic systems; Poisson channels, Communication channels, Information system.
