A coding theorem is proved for a class of stationary channels with feedback in which-the output Y-n. = f (X-n-m(n) Z(n-m)(n)) is the function of the current and past in symbols from the channel input X,, and the stationary ergodic channel noise Z(n). In particular, it is shown that the feedback capacity is equal to[GRAPHICS]where I(X-n -> Y-n) = Sigma(n)(i=1) I(X-i ; Y-i vertical bar Yi-1)denotes the Massey directed information from the channel input to the output, and the supremum is taken over all causally conditioned distributions p(x(n)parallel to y(n-1)) = Pi(n)(i=1) p(x(i)vertical bar x(i-1), y(i-1)). The main ideas of the proof are a classical application of the Shannon strategy for coding with side information and a new elementary coding technique for the given channel model without feedback, which is in a sense dual to Gallager's lossy coding of stationary ergodic sources. A similar approach gives a simple alternative proof of coding theorems for finite state channels by Yang-Kav&-Tatikonda, Chen-Berger, and Permuter-Weissman-Goldsmith.
