Abstract

A computationally feasible encoding and decoding arrangement and method for transmission of data over an additive white Gaussian noise channel with average codeword power constraint employs sparse superposition codes. The code words are linear combinations of subsets of vectors from a given dictionary, with the possible messages indexed by the choice of subset. An adaptive successive decoder is shown to be reliable with error probability exponentially small for all rates below the Shannon capacity.
