Information-Energy Regions in the Finite Block-Length Regime with Finite Channel Inputs
share
This paper provides a complete characterization of the information-energy region of simultaneous information and energy transmission over an additive white Gaussian noise channel in the finite block-length regime with finite sets of channel input symbols. Given a set of channel input symbols, the converse characterizes the tuples of information rate, energy rate, decoding error probability (DEP) and energy outage probability (EOP) that cannot be achieved by any code built using the given set of channel inputs. A novel method for constructing a family of codes that respects the given information rate, energy rate, DEP and EOP requirements is proposed. The achievable region identifies the set of tuples of information rate, energy rate, DEP and EOP that can be achieved by the constructed family of codes. The proposed construction proves to be information rate, energy rate, and EOP optimal. The achieved DEP is, however, sub-optimal, owing to the choice of the decoding regions made during the construction.
