Channel Coding: The Road to Channel Capacity
Daniel J. Costello, G. David Forney
Starting from Shannon's celebrated 1948 channel coding theorem, we trace the evolution of channel coding from Hamming codes to capacity-approaching codes. We focus on the contribut…

Shannon meets Wiener II: On MMSE estimation in successive decoding schemes
G. David Forney
We continue to discuss why MMSE estimation arises in coding schemes that approach the capacity of linear Gaussian channels. Here we consider schemes that involve successive decodin…
