Capacity-Achieving Input Distribution of the Additive Uniform Noise Channel With Peak Amplitude and Cost Constraint

Author: Dr. Jonas Stapmanns, Institut für Physiologie, Universität Bern
Title:
Abstract: Under which condition is quantization optimal? We address this question in the context of the additive uniform noise channel under peak amplitude and power constraints. We compute analytically the capacity-achieving input distribution as a function of the noise level, the average power constraint and the exponent of the power constraint. We found that when the cost constraint is tight and the cost function is concave, the capacity-achieving input distribution is discrete, whereas when the cost function is convex, the support of the capacity-achieving input distribution spans the entire interval.
